Speed Flite

[Budeebro1]

Bought this today before it became yard art for the junk shop owner. It says Speed Flite down the seat tube and that is the only markings on it. No headbadge and I forgot to look for a serial number. The rear hub is a bendix but it looks like a manual 2 speed I had but no place for a cable on it. From the sprocket it is a Murray built, rite?

The collared top tube to seat tube joint is absolutely Murray. it doesn't have the typical pointy Murray rear dropouts, so it's 1957 or older. It might have a code of MOT-W for that year. -Adam

The serial number is 50826 and has M O V stamped above it and its all on the bottom bracket.

There you go, 1956 then. -Adam
