Description
Here is an original 1920s ANTIQUE (I did not see a serial number) men's HIBBARD "Camelback" bicycle with 26" wheels. (This one was born with 28") It is in the original and very appealing BLACK and ORANGE (how cool) 2-tone colored factory paint. If you like UNIQUE original bikes, this may be a great bike for you. With the insanely high price of gas (and the economy being bad) now is the time to ride a cool vintage bike!
*This bike is awesome! Most of these teens and 1920s era bikes did not survive the "WW2 Scrap Drives" (do a google search if you are not familiar with that. Its very interesting) To find one with original 80+ year old paint is AWESOME!
*This bike has a cool mens cruiser style frame and forks with original paint and decals, truss rod forks, full fenders, rear fender mounted glass reflector, updated cruiser style seat and bars, and more! I had an Elgin bike with this same style frame. (it is possible the same company manufacture them both?) I am not an expert on these very old bike so see pics and be your own judge)
*SO, I got this bike just like you see it. It also came with some 28" "clad" wheels AND a cool "skiptooth" cranks and sprocket. This bike was updated to be a rider! So my dilimna, do I put the original parts back on or do I offer it just like it is and make the parts available? Well, no matter what I do, someone out there wont be happy but I have decided to offer the bike on one sale and the parts on a couple other separate listings. (Yes there are people who want to ride a bike like this and people who want to display a bike like this) I have the other parts for sale on separate listings. see last 2 pics) They are not included as a part of this sale) The original 28" tires are expensive so I know that is why the previous owner updated this bike as you see it) If you decide to offer on both the bike and the wheels, I could always remove the wheels that are on the bike and ship the others instead if that is what you would like. I wont offer any discount but that is an option. If you want both sets, they would have to ship in 2 separate packages. I try my best but is not possible to keep everyone out there happy in a situation like this. SO, I whether you are a bike rider, or a perosn who enjoys displaying bikes, I hope this bike gets a great new home!
*The tires are 26". They are vintage tires and do hold air. The bike has chrome raised center rims front and rear with a Bendix rear hub.
*The bike is an original SINGLE SPEED with coaster brakes. (pedal slightly backwards to stop the bike)
*DIMENSIONS The stand over height is approx 30 1/2". The distance from the floor to the top of the seat post clamp is approx 28 1/2". The distance from the center of the crank to the top of the seat post clamp is approx 18". The center of the handlebar stem to the center of the seat post is approx 21 3/4". The bike will accommodate most any rider comfortably. The seat height is easy to adjust.
*NOTED FLAWS It is not 100% flawless but is ok! The paint looks fairly good for an 80+ year old bike! (this bike was probably built somewhere between 1905 and the 1920s but I dont know for sure) The chrome is shiney but is not perfect show quality. Both wheels have a slight wobble when you spin them. I noticed a couple small frame bar dents. (see closeup pics, typical on bikes of this era) SO, I hope you enjoy this bike whether you are a bicycle rider or a bicycle collector! If you are looking for a "nut and bolt original" keep looking. This is a cool bike that has survived a very very long time! If you click on any of the pics they get very large to show lots of detail. Please take a look at all pics for exact condition and email with any questions before you offer.
*This appears to be a fairly nice original unmolested bicycle unless otherwise noted. A great bike to ride on relaxing days through the park or to the beach. Also would be a nice item to display in a shop, restaurant, rec room, sports bar, etc. Stand out from the crowd and be the envy of people who see you riding by. People will enjoy seeing you on your vintage bike! A great classic bike at a great price
*Why not ride a bike? You will live longer, feel better, and save $$$ vs of the insanely high cost of gasoline. If you are looking for a fun bike to ride and enjoy this may be it! A nice bike to cruise the beach or your local park! Priced way less than a dime store bike that wont be around 5 years from now, much less 30+ years like this one! Please give this bike a good home and DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY! Classic bikes are very cool because not everyone on the block has one! People love to see and talk about and ride these classic bikes! They are more popular now than ever before!
*This may be a great Birthday or other special holiday gift for someone! It is never too soon to think ahead and get someone something they may really like!! This starts reasonably with ABSOLUTELY so offer early and don't miss out! These are getting to be hard to find in any condition and to my knowledge, have not been reproduced.
*Sold as is simply because it is used. I try my very best to describe as accurately as possible and disclose anything I am aware of about the bike. PLEASE NOTE that many of the bikes I list have listed have been in long term storage and have not been regularly ridden in a while.(not a bad thing) They may need standard tuning, greasing, may have old tires, surface rust etc. I try to be as honest as possible and never want to disappoint anyone. If you have any questions regarding any specific things concerning the bike, please feel feel to ASK via emali before you offer. Keep in mind you are offerding on a 30+ year old bike that is not a brand new bicycle so it may need minor tuning, cables or cable adjustment, if tires are original, they may or may not have sidewall cracks, etc. I try to be as honest as I can and disclose anything I know about the bike. I want you to be happy with your new vintage purchase but please understand the bike may need some tlc to be road ready.
*By offerding please understand that you are purchasing a used bicycle that may or may not need tlc. If I notice an issue, I always try to note it in the sale listing. I want you to be excited about your new bike and hope you really enjoy your new vintage ride for years to come. Be sure to check out all pics and email with any questions you may have before you offer regarding condition, mechanical items, etc.
*NOTE REGARDING SHIPPING YOUR BIKE Your bike will be partially disassembled and shipped to you in a factory bicycle box. We try our best to package the bicycles carefully to avoid any unnecessary damage caused in transit however, scratches etc are possible to happen in transit which we have no control over once shipped. We try to package well so the bike arrives to you in the same condition as it left us.
*SHIPPING COSTS: Fed Ex, USPS, as well as UPS have recently raised their shipping rates due to the higher cost of fuel. Sorry for the slight increase in shipping costs.
*PLEASE NOTE, I WILL NO LONGER BE SHIPPING FULL SIZE BIKES OUTSIDE OF THE USA. This is due to the high cost of shipping and customs. If you are anywhere outside the lower 48 States including Alaska, Hawaii, or Puerto Rico contact me before you offer as shipping will cost more. Fed Ex just increased the rates. I can ship to AK, HI, or PR for approx $159.95. This is a 10+ day service and includes packing. This i the best deal I can get to ship to these locations. Please do not offer if this is unacceptable. I always try to keep things as reasonable as I can. If you have a friend or family member in the lower 48 states, I can ship to them for the amount stated in the listing. THANK YOU!
*I have lots of other rare bicycles, bike parts and bike accessories, as well as vintage car parts and unique items on sale this week! Check them out! Combine items to save yourself $$$ on shipping! Email with any questions you may have.
