Heres what I found! Sold thru Supplee Biddle Hardware Store, have no clue as to who the maker is though.

I know! :) more than likely repainted though. :(
I dunno. I think maybe I'd think about taking it back and hoping that the zombie cats recover.

FWI, those are not zombie cats! They are trained gaurd cats with lazer eyes! The other cat was a bit to close to the bike and was zapped into a puff of fur just seconds after I snapped the pic! :twitchy:

Those cats would make great reflectors. Train them to ride on the handle bars.
Love the Gangster White Walls.

Cool bike, what is going on with what appears to be an axle adjuster on the rear hub? Seems to be pulling the hub forward, not holding it back.

They work fine, but the axle nuts were lost in transport, so the wheel is actually just sitting there being held in place by the fender and rack braces, till the last owner delivers the axle nuts anyways. :thumb:
