$10 find.

Late '60's, very early '70's would be my guess. :|

72 or slightly newer would be my guess because of the reflectors in the spokes.Nice find. 8)

yep i agree with you thom the 60.s had a bracket from the chain guard that had clamped to the frame i beleave and the newer 70.zzzzz bolted to the rear drop outs or what ever its called nice bike no matter what year it is ..its still roleing

 

[deorman]

It looks to me as though there is a clamp on the front down tube. :? Pic's coming up smallish. :| I have '90's reflectors on my '70's bike :wink: Didn't they start using a tab with screwhole deal to attach the front of guard sometime around then? Your guess is as good as mine.

I get my old bike memories mixed up sometimes, If I had had to pick one year, it would have a toss-up between 69 and 72. :mrgreen: :lol:
Not quite the end of the 1-pc crank road bikes, either way.
