The aluminum frame on this Monark built Hawthorne Duralium has a piece of springed steel behind the crank housing, and springed steel rod inside the rear stays allowing the rear of the frame to flex for a softer ride. The Monark branded version of this bike was known as the Flocycle, and had a few differences, most notably the truss rods and head casting.
