so i got the dropouts filed out. i noticed that on the seat tube there's still a sticker from when it was registered with the city of los angeles around 1966. heh. cool. i can't find much info on monark, aside from pages about old baloon tire cruisers. i kinda want to find out about it now. i think it was a 3 speed when it was still complete, mostly because of the single chainring...any more info would be much appreciated.
