Trip to Zoo nets a "N" 26er

[landgraftj]

So I took the wife and my son to Brookfield Zoo this morning and stumbled upon this one at a garage sale on the way. Its a Flat-top "N" 26er that needs some fixing but I only paid $40 for her. Local guys - I may just decide to swap this one for something in the 22.5 range so let me know if anyone may be interested. My limited amount of space is quickly filling up and she's a big girl.

Wood love a 26er flattie here in oz

Word on the street is they did sell them here

Awesome pick up! I didn't know the flattop came with one touch. I'd be interested if you decide to let it go!

Dude! Nice grab!

[Craig]

That looks nice! Great score!

Me either!  Looks like it will be a great cooker

Mine does. And I like to keep my 26er clean...it's a clean machine.

My blue 26 is a one touch

My 1985 26" flat top is a one touch...

Good question Lawrence. My lid is pretty groovy:

If I read right they're all spun from flat blanks......


I think this video from awhile back shows that, I don't remember, it's newer & I think they may just be pressed into shape nowadays.....
