Recently aquired this 1935 Rollfast Motobike.
Handlebars, stem, seat, and fender stays had been replaced by someone unknown along the way. Everything else appears to be stock.
It appears someone really liked red and white paint (it's probably the only thing that saved/preserved the bicycle this long). The paint was slopped all over the bicycle (even the spokes). Stripping some of the paint I could see hints of a faded green.
The Rollfast is solid, and straight. It has a few dings and dents, but nothing major. I had to replace a few bearings, all the other internal parts look good.
Lots, and lots of grungy dried grease and dirt, but everything cleaned up well.
The '35 Rollfast was torn down, and sent out to be powder coated.
Without further ado here is the 1935 Rollfast Motobike.
Enjoy.
