early 1950s automoto city bike/mixte, comes with headset, bb, and seatpost and seat bolt. i have been informed by several folks that it may in fact be a 650b set up, but can't claim that for sure. in case you are interested:

Neat frame but there are pressing questions:
- You say " i set it up and rode it around town for a day, " How did you build it up and ride it if you don't know wheel size? Or maybe you just made do with what you have, so what wheels did you use?
- What cranks did you use? I see that the adjustable bb cup is sticking waaay out. looks like almost to the end of it's threads....! Is that the bb you used?
- Did you mean to say that the fork blades are bent (they are) or is the steerer also bent?
Still, neat cool frame.
Thanks Dale
