    Monark Dual Springer Fork

    Mofo / MoFaux 8/1 They're Done!

    Re: Mofo You're right about the little details. A few weeks back, I went to a Bike Fest in Livingston Montana and entered my bike. I think the old wooden beer crate on the back filled with empties push me over the top...I won 3rd Place Best in Show! Nice touch on the seat...I like simple design.

    Possible Monark? Help identifying would be nice. =D

    Am I not seeing the pics?? As for the paint, my Monark/Firestone has very light imprinted serial number on the bottom of the CC. If the numbers are stamped, take the paint off with a little 0000 steel wool. If there isn't a plate on the CC, look close, they might still be there.
