This was a US sporting goods company whose bicycles were entry-level and durable. In the movie "Breaking Away", the Little 500 race use AMF Roadmaster single speed bikes. Could you uplink a few photos?

Some observations about it, like the frame construction? The crankset? The headbadge? The style of handlebars? Are the rims made of chrome steel? Those sorts of details...
