  • 1915 Cleveland Dennis Mc Carthy-I need your help

    Hi Dennis. In 1980 I restored a 1915 Cleveland (serial number 383). In 1978 I visited Ted Hodgdon when in Florida to see his original Cleveland. Ny wife and I then headed to Daytona . My question is...the one in the Barber museum. Is it a 15 and if so is it the Hodgdon bike.(one of the club's founders) My second query is when I got the bike out of a chicken coupe here in Manitoba it was almost complete except for handlebars. I have a drawing from a friend from a 1917. If I sent the drawing to you could you confirm the measurements or give me a drawing of the 1915 in the museum. It has always bothered me that I put bicycle bars on at the time. I would then solicit the help of Tom Faber to make up a set for me. Thanks a bunch if it's possible. No sweat if it can't be done.

    Hello My Friend

    I will do what ever I can for you. I will take as many pictures of the bike that you need and will help you follow up on any contacts that I know of in regards to the same. Just let me know what you need and I will pursue them!

    Take care and have a great weekend!

      Thanks Denis. If you could find out who the previous owners of your 15 are that would end my curiousity. The main thing is a pattern from the museums 1915 handlebars.I have a pattern from a 17 as I stated but I'm not sure if it is the same.Basically it's the same rquest as my first thread. Nice to have you on the thread.

        Denis.

        I'd like to extend a big "Thank You" for your help and information being given freely here. I for one, find the before, during and after pictures very interesting. You also have access to knowledge that the rest of us might benefit from.

        Thanks again, Scotty.....hdstm
