It's a 24' wheel so it only looks long but then again I can ride it and I'm 6'6". I still don't know if I am going to even keep it, I have my main rider and I think this was more of a bucket list bike for me anyways so you might see it up for trade soon

 

[Loosenuts]

Wow that is a cool bike.

They do have a longer wheelbase than many 26" bikes.

Why were they 24"? Did they make a 26" at all? Gary

Gary, all the regular Silver Kings, the Flo-cycles, and the Wingbars were 24" only. The later hexbars are 26". They also made a model known as the 26X, as well as a single top tube camel-back model. Those are both larger wheels and are uber rare!

heres some new pictures of it I took today

That really looks cool as a Klunker, but I'm sure you would hear a serious "klunk" if you try to ride that 1930's alloy frame off road very far!

Those are the only 24" tires I had in my shop, I have some better ones on the way. I really wanted to ride it

Super sweet score!

 

[CWC]

Some nice new rubber on her and got the hubs running nice and smooth, the more I do to it the more I want to keep it

 

[Onewheelsqueel]

Sweet bike. looks real nice with the long spring seat.

Why would you even think about getting rid of it.

Why would you even think about getting rid of it.

Cause I'm 6'6" lol

 

[Pookie42]

I found a torrington art deco stem for it the other day at a gem and mineral shop in my town. Of all the places to find one.
