Any idea how many of these were manufactured and how many are accounted for? Not finding much info, still looking, though.

There are no records of how many were made but only 8 are accounted for, two of these have been restored. There is only one "walk through" girls model and the rest are boys versions. Most of the mens have slightly different variations so I think they where assembled at different times. I am trying to get one rolling this summer. The wheel (similar to the one above) just came back from the blaster and the hub had 14 cracks in it! It seems John Alexander definitely used these as part of his rental inventory to GIs at the army base and townsfolk in Paris.

Myke D's "Atomic" one of a few Copake buy/swaps is a fabulous bike, just dribbling out a few cool pics. Rambler badged close fitting springer setup's rear forks have invariably hit and deflected an otherwise pristine tank. The damage to the tank is significant but not reversible but I think the designers had some blame here. Nice on this bike is that the springer setup and the fork is straight, it's our comparitor to all the head on stone wall crashed Westfield springersbikes we are usually dealing with.

It took bike design until '54 for Snyder to implement a one-year-only solution of a post and plate type lockout (pictured) for springer models and it worked awesome why was this not adopted?
