 | Arrow (Hiawatha) - This months featured bicycle is a Shelby built Hiawatha "no-nose" Air-Flo. Notice the tank does not extend past the head tube like it does on the standard Airflo bicycles, yet the bike still retains all the other deluxe features. This bike was restored by Keith Dean and is one of Rich Edmonsons most prized bikes. |

 | Arrow (1930's, Hiawatha) - Very similar to the Airflo, the primary difference is the tank design. The Air-Flo has embossed lightening darts on each side of the tank and the headlight sticks out further on the bottom rather than the top as seen here. This bike is a complete original in very nice condition. Notice the indian head fender ornament. |

| Arrow (1939, Hiawatha) - The Hiawatha Arrow "No Nose" got its name from its similarity to the Shelby Airflo, which had a tank that extended in front of the head tube. Other than that, the rear portion of the tank was the same... thus the nickname "No Nose". |

 | Arrow (1939, Hiawatha) - Deluxe Hiawatha Arrow, sold by Gambles department stores. Manufactured by Shelby, this bike is very similar to the Shelby branded Airflo model. The horn tank, which had the headlight built in wraps around the head tube for a streamline look. The carrier and chainguard both had a large heavy look. |
