It looks to be a Snyder built frame. There is a date code is on the bottom bracket shell.

I'm always on the lookout for bikes with wood rims!

I'm calling it quits. I build bikes for fun and if I have to force myself to work on something, thats sort of the opposite. Maybe I'll revisit it in the winter.

I want to be working on this bike, but

It's about time I tried to get some work done on this thing. I've got a start on a parts pile.

That's a really cool frame, and your idea for the guessets makes it even better.

Those mini tall bikes are pretty cool but I'd probably break my neck.

I got the fork welded up this afternoon. +177mm over on the length with 100mm spacing for the wheel.

I started off with these parts specifically because the fork tubes are 1" OD. They match right up with the guts of these cheap mtb forks.

I'm off to a bit of a late start, and I don't really have a plan at this point. I'll find some inspiration once I start to get some parts together. For now this is what I'm starting with.

I'm in. I plan to throw something together from what I already have laying around, probably class II.

It might be possible to get tires directly from Kent. They still sell a bike with 32" tires.

I'm excited for the coming build-off, I just wish summer would pump the brakes. 87f (30c) today.

Nice frame. I think the serial on the dropout starting with 4H makes it a 1954.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do to it. I had one growing up, still have it actually.

Thanks!

Great job saving a classic.

This bike started out as a rusty ladies Free Spirit. I converted it to a mens frame with a curved seat tube and hellenec style seat stays, while attempting to keep the original patina. All the tubing is from Murray built bikes. All the parts that were replaced were left over from other builds...

I'm calling this bike done.
