Look Ma, No Hands!
Hello to you all.
I'm Jack from The Netherlands.
Got 50 last July, and am a truckdriver.
I came across this forum, during my search for parts for my bike.
So now i posted this, hoping somebody can tell me more about the bike i have.
Some days after i've got 50.
I have got this bike as a late birthday gift, from a friend of mine.
I know he did have this bike stored for almost 20 years somewhere in his garage.
It was meant to be restored, but he never did anything with it.
As i have some other bikes, ( Basman, Felt Classic stretch, RHL Meanstreet and a few Electras)
he tought it was a good idea to give the bike to me.
So that i could do, what i want to do with it.
When he gave it to me the tires where flat.
We put air in the tires and 3 months later, they still hold air.
But now about the bike, here comes what i know so far.
It's a 26" J.C. Higgins Sears Roebuck and Co. ladies bike.
With a push button on top of the right tank half.
I do doubt if this is the correct tank.
On the left side, the fork shows 4 stars.
I think it has a strange model handlebar.
The bottombracket says. MOS-Q MOD502-286 90586
It has a Bendix rear hub with one red line in the middle of the hub.
Because of the pics i did need to cut the thread in two parts, please read part 2 also.
