    Description

Here is an original 1930s Hiawatha motobike FRAME which originally came with 26x2.125" wheels.  (I believe around 1939. The serial number is E47782 and is stamped on the bottom of the crank housing) is the basis for something great!

*Mens prewar non Schwinn bikes are steadily gaining popularity and are hard to find! Use a more common girls/ladies bike to build this one up or load it up with a tank, rack, etc. The choice is yours! Would be cool to restore or do it in a "rat rod" type patina.  I hope this one goes to someone who can truly appreciate it for what it is!

*This frame is COOL! The more you look at it, the more you love the design!

*Comes with everything shown including the frame, Brass Headbadge, rear chain adjusters, lucky 7 seat post, and everything shown.  (the seat post nut will need oil/kroil and some patience if you decide to remove it as it is tight) 

*Build a factory cruiser, custom cruiser, an early 1980s style "Klunker" mountain bike, or make a rat rod! The choice is yours! These are tough to find these days and the people who own them never sell them! These have a vast history and people really like them!

RIGHT NOW I have 8 related items for sale on 8 separate related listings. I have the frame with badge, truss forks, dropstand, dogleg cranks, crossbar handlebars, chainguard, rear carrier rack, and the fenders set with "flat" braces. All items are available right now but you are bidding on the item in the TOP PICS ONLY!

*DIMENSIONS  The distance from the center of the crank to the top of the seat post clamp is approx 19". The center of the handlebar stem to the center of the seat post is approx 22". YES, this is LONG frame and people LOVE THESE!  The bike will accommodate most any rider comfortably. The seat height is easy to adjust.

*NOTED FLAWS I got this one just like you see it. This is a good basis for something great! This was obviously repainted. They are next to impossible to find and is better than money in the bank!
