ORBO FYA - Functional Yard Art

Meh…. She’s done. Test ride around the block was fine.

Seat is WAY too low for long rides, so, I’ll have to lift that up…. But other than that…. Thing pedaled and rolled smooth as silk!

Love the patina on that Huffman! Love to see a bike that looks like nothing ever happened to it. Great job!

That's the most fantastically humble 'Load Lugger' model FYA I dun ever seen assembled.
Is that an actual FYALL model?
It sure looks like and I'd bet rides like one!
I envy your self restraint throughout your refreshment of this charming old character of a bike.

Thanks! I had it sitting in my yard for about a year. It’s technically a mid 50’s Dayton Huffman.

The bike rides perfectly; the seat is a little low. I’m going to try to raise up so it doesn’t smoke your quads in a mile!
