After taking out my Build Off 11 bike for it's inaugural kruise
(see pics of the ride http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/in...s-of-inaugural-ride.98230/page-4#post-1001342
I checked on a Western flyer that was listed on CL to see if it was still for sale
Which it was so I made the 200mile (round trip) after the ride from Huntington Beach to bLandcaster and back again
to pick up this
Frame as a couple of dents, the light and rear reflector parts are missing, and the seat post is toast
Also chainguard is wrong as well as the grips
but the most important stuff that make it an x53 are there
like the tank, springer, and rear rack
rear coaster brake is a musseleman model M (i dont know if that is correct)
Since this is one of my top ten bikes I plan on keeping it and fixin it up (just a bit) unless some one wants to talk trade negotiations
but to pry this bike or just the main parts from me it is going to take something I realy want so dont ask unless you have
examples: wingbar frame, huffman twinflex frame with rear springer, huffman flying ace, Mens Belknap Bluegrass (Huffman made), Roadmaster Luxury Liner (amf made), or something else unique
BTW the white tires in the pics where also included in the deal
and went to good use on my mildly custom Aluminum frame Hampton
Before with original Brooklyn Speedway tires
After
