What is this?

This was an antique auto swap meet I stopped by today . Looks as the seat rises as the rear wheels move. Seller wanted 125.00 and worth it and was for sure it was 100 years old ; I disagree on both accounts and walked away.

What is this?

I would have given 50$ just for peculiarity. It looks like it's along the lines of the Ingo-Bike (Ingo-Trike!) Maybe a foot rod would have gone through that bar that hangs below.. it would have ridden by the alternating bounce of your bum and pump of your foot. This I Believe.

Looks to be 75 to 80 years old. I dub it the Bronco trike......

jockycycle.I think these were from the30's.It is in "fragile" condition and would not offer more than$80
the seat does go up and down.If that one is frozen up so much it would not work thats a good negotiating point plus pedal setup is missing.

Yep - Jockey Cycle

Yep - J E Donalson Jockey Cycle. Would have been a good pick up for restoration parts. Hardly ever see these with the original hub caps and handle bars. Somewhere under all that rust is some chrome!

The way it works is similar to my horse trike
