Elgin Skylark

[carlalotta]

I just got this bike out of Michigan last weekend. I love the scooped fenders and frame I just bought the correct pedals and I can't wait to get those put on the bike and get some good pictures!

I will get some better pics up soon but these are the only ones I have right now of the speedometer and the front piece. The seat is a leaf-spring seat like the Elgin Bluebird. Of which I am looking for one for my other incomplete Skylark so if you have one, I would be very interested

Please ignore all the replies you get recommending that you strip off the fenders and skirt guards and put ape hanger bars on it. That is a beautiful bike.Good find.

Hi Hannah! So that's what you were hiding in the bottom of your SUV - that truly is a piece of art. One more beauty to add to your collection. When do we get to see a pic of your posse all together? That was worth the trip - Fantastic!

Those fenders are awesome, and the three-downtube frame is pretty cool and unusual as well. 8)

OUTSTANDING piece of Art Deco Art, Ha ha ha!

I have seen this frame before, but never with all the correct pieces parts on it. When you get the pedals on it don't do what i do and take pics with lousy backgrounds, bring it outside in the sun and snap a couple of pics that really do the bike justice. Can't wait to see more!

Another happy Elgin owner!

Easily one of the top 10 most stunning balloon bike designs ever....and not all picked over. What a great score.
