Re: Info Help Thanks for the tips. Its actually a 26 inch tire in the back, I'll take some pics tomorrow and post them up. The Guard says Hawthorne, and I'll have to dig out my huffy 10 speed and see what the chain ring looks like. :D

I need some help finding info on my bike. All i know is its a Hawthorne, and thats its possible from '69. I did a bit of research and found out its possibly a Hawthorne Super Springer, but I keep finding dead links. Does this bike look familiar to you guys? Thanks! Right one^

I seriously can't find much about this bike. The closest looking bike I've found is a Columbia, maybe someone can at least give me a pointer in the right direction. I'm wondering if It might be a mash of a couple of bikes, so I'd like to at least ID the frame. It seems like the frames with two...

I've always loved vintage bicycle but never seemed to be at the right place to pick one up.... I finally got one a few days ago! I have no idea what it is I can't seem to find much information the color that's on it is a repaint, the head badge is bare metal, and It seems like there isn't many...
