Left turn - right turn...

While out and about collecting bicycles for Bicycles for Humanity, I frequently stumble across neat old bicycle accessories. I did start a thread about this but have not been able to find and bump the thread to include these new accessory finds. Have a peek...

Two sets of turn signals, a frame mounted rear wheel lock, a really neat double sided old bell, a leather hub polisher, a brake lever mounted mirror, and a near mint wheel driven speedometer assembly. And...

I forgot to take a picture of the piece de resistance, a near mint AFA frame pump. Now I gotta find a bike to hang it on. Perhaps my PX10...

As a kid, I'd spend a lot of my spare time reading and re-reading the Canadian Tire Catalog, especially the (large) section on bike accessories. I still remember how badly I wanted the double arrow turn signal you show up there, to hang on the sissy bar of my Eaton's Chopper style bike - thanks for the memories!!

I have a set of turn signals like the forst set on a Schwinn Suburban - mine are Schwinn branded with a "Sting Ray" label.

The original mirrycle mirror is still in production. I had one on my touring bike for almost 20 years. I always thought it was a great design.

I recently had an issue a new mirror, the people were kind and generous. I think there a great company.

Oh great. There goes my corner the market strategy... But you are right on the money. For older road bikes, these mirrors cannot be beat in my opinion.
