    Early Caper cycle brake stay?

    working on a 1961 short frame Caper roadrunner/falcon, Tyring to figure out what prevents the brake plate from rotating. Looks like in the brochure that the brake arm almost rests against the top of the axle mount? In various pictures of actual bikes online though the arm is in different...

    Caper cycle Brake/sprocket sizes??

    James A. is sending me a 1960-61 Caper cycle to play with. Not sure yet if the brakes are in working order but I know the sprocket teeth don't look too healthy on the drum. I saw it was listed somewhere on here as maybe being a comet unit but that really does not tell much, wondering if...

    Caper Cycle

    The attached pic shows the first page of a bunch of Caper Cycle and Caper Cart paperwork that was actually used in the office where they were made. A rare find because this stack was found in the bottom of a supposedly empty file case many years after Ben Hunt Manufacturing shut down. This...

    Picked this Early Caper Cycle roller.

    I think it may be a 1959. It's earlier since it has the flat top frame. Pegs are wrong, easy fix. Jack shaft mount on one side is gone, easy fix. Everything else is straight. Wheels and sprocket are original. Original brake works. Rare bike to find and I'm happy to come across it...
