what is it
 

Recently found a bike in grandma barn and can't figure out what it is

Cheers and welcome to Bike Forums.

I'm moving this to our Classic & Vintage forum, they know all about grandma barns and bikes found there. Be prepared to post more pics.

[MENTION=392451]blondtempest16[/MENTION] welcome to the C&V forum...

Suggested pics (and others may have more!)...

(1) Drive side full frame
(2) close ups of components and significant features
(3) Any decals

This will give everyone a good start...from the picture you posted...this will be interesting!

Looks like an old bike to me, but I am just guessing here.

I agree with daf1009, we need some more information for us to help you. You location may help are you in the US? Europe?

REALLY??? :lol:

I think that's a Rollfast badge.

Don't do anything to it! It has just the right amount of dust on the tank.

the bike is currently in central minnesota usa. Grandma at one time lived in california.

The bike is currently hung by about 3 ropes from the rafters. We had made the comment that it kinda looks like the bike that is used on the advertising for "Fat Tire" wines. The bike is Red. I can tell that even with a million layers of dust on it. I thought we had taken more pictures of the bike but I was using my sons smart phone and I guess it is smarter than I am.

Here we go:

I hope we get to see more of it.

I had not realized they used a ball bearing cross section on their badges -- pretty slick.
