PAGE #4
This 1928 Iver Johnson Road Racer, serial # 484739 is a totally original and unmolested racer. The only thing ever changed out on
this bike was the tires. The original Iver Johnson Ebony Black paint and single hair line striping is still in great shape on this Men's
22" diamond frame racer. Up front is the correct chrome headtube, narrow chrome racing fork, and gold headbadge with a fantastic
patina. The racer is resting on a beautiful set of original natural finish "Crescent" shaped wood racing wheels laced to an Iver
Johnson front hub and a Model "C" New Departure rear coaster brake hub. Finishing off the wheelset is a great set of 28" x 1 1/8"
United States Special Racer tires. A Persons "Majestic" racing saddle, Bridgeport rat trap pedals, Iver Johnson #11 racing handlebars
with forward extension, and original grips add to the great vintage look of this racer. All in all, a superbly preserved example of an
Iver Johnson period racer.
