Look closely at that front chain-ring; it's not round, it's elliptical.
When is Vintage mtb gonna catch on???
Great day/ride/view.
I think the elliptical thing was started or ended by Diamond Back. I had that on my MTB in the 80’s.
Missing seat for stand up riding or theft deterrent?

Some folks steal the seat off a bike, if left alone for any short period of time.
A friend's bike, who is at the beach every day.
Today, Velvet, 1935 Huffman, around the neighborhood for awhile.

That elliptical thing goes way back to the 1890s I believe.
Check out the many historical examples people brought to light whilst I was researching about one that a friend has on one of his bikes:
A friend recently found this, any ideas anyone? This first photo shows it in 'as found' condition..... It's marked 'ELAN', in a typeface that screams French to me..... The adaptor plate allows it to fit on these 'Williams' cranks..... Thanks in advance for any help/info. Darren.
Afternoon/sunset ride around the neighborhood. Rode the new to me DX. Still need to tweak a few things, rides nice and very fast. Stay healthy,have fun and enjoy the ride.
