This is an Original Twin 20 model Elgin Bicycle made in late 1939 or early 1940. Elgin Twinbar Bicycles were made by Murray of Ohio and Sold by the Sears Department stores from 1938-1942, Pre World War 2. This Bicycle was the Cutting Edge at it’s time, with a Design that Boasted the Design Similarities of a Suspension Bridge. Elgin TwinBars Very Unique, Highly Sought after By Collectors, and One of My Personal Favorite Antique Bikes. Twin Bars Have a Unique Frame that has no seat tube, an Incredible Head Shroud with logo on the Head tube, a Unique Tear Drop Pod around the bottom bracket, Finned air cooled Hubs, and Raised ridge Gothic fenders. They have incredible Design and Quality Like a Schwinn. Definitely One of the Coolest Antique Bicycles, and In My Opinion, Twinbars Give Classic Schwinn Bicycles a Run for their Money.
