a little off topic....vintage tricycles....

trying to identify a couple *****in old school aluminum tricycles...any ideas on make and model and year .....? thanks brandon

 

I'm not sure on the firstone, but have had a few of the second one. you can take the back deck off and put one of the wheels in that slot and make a two wheeled bike. If my memory serves me right, they were originally constructed for school yards and playgrounds, that's why they were so heavy duty.

Got one just like the second one also! Still has the tag on the front reads:

Convert-O
"Built to Last"
Anthony Bros. MFG. Div.
??glewood California
Pat No. R2209058 (not shure if first letter is an R)

Rear tag reads "AB-523 1902"

Now I have these next two that I would really like to know how old they are. Any ideas?



Restored this yellow one for my oldest daughter.



Never finished this one for my youngest, just like my rods, never done.

 

the first trike looks a kind of like the old Maveric bicycles. sorry i can't ID it for sure.
man they made some cool stuff.
