1937 Monark, Flocycle

All original except for the rear reflector housing and lens. Note the hex shaped handlebar and fork strut tubing. The unique leaf spring behind the bottom bracket allows the rear seat stays of the bike to flex, givng the bike a soft ride. The rear stays of the frame also have spring steal rod inside the aluminum tubing.
