Copake Swap 2012 pt.2

 Interesting Schwinn Paramount with a gold fork, Gillon, and Austro-Daimler
 early Record adjustable cage pedals.
 Eddie Albert's table of rare parts for sale- Inch Pitch track chainrings, Campagnolo hubs, various stems and derailleurs.
 This early Iver Johnson trussbar frameset was updated with hubs brakes and an internal gear rear hub.
 Hendee Indian race bike.
 Early 1900s cushion frame.
A fellow collector recently found an early 1950s Raleigh but the Reynolds aluminum stem was cracked. I just so happen to buy a set of handlebars with a Reynolds stem that morning at Copake and was able to help him out.

Hendee Indian racing bicycle

A collector friend of the shop brought by this beautiful original paint Hendee Indian racing bike. I couldn't find much online about Indian racing bikes but he headbadge suggest it was built before 1923, because the design changed that year. This bicycle is equipped with BSA cranks, bottom bracket and hubs, Duckworth block chain, wood rims, Troxel leather saddle, and Standard toe clips, and what appears to be Torrington pedals. It was originally sold here in Philadelphia on Broad Street, at Star Cycle Company. The color and boxlining are excellent, what a cool bike!
