Prewar Hiawatha - Board Track Style

[tcb-1]

Just got her together and it rides beautifully. Gotta love the old iron!

Specs:
1939 Gambles Hiawatha frame and fork
Electra vintage diamond tread tires
New Departure front low flange hub
Bendix rear hub and brake
Sweetheart skiptooth ring
Dogleg Crank
Wald pedals
Wald bottom bracket set
"Well worn" Troxel seat
Western Flyer "Super Jet" grips (soon to be replaced by leather Brooks wrap)

She'll be getting a few subtle hand painted pinstripes in a few weeks. I have a new addiction!!
