\"Trust the Truss!\"
This is an old wood rim 28\" roadster. It is not in ride-able condition. There is pitting under older house paint. It is a great, affordable display piece for retail or personal space, but to ride it will need attention to the wheels(wood is not separated, but needs help. Tires are, as usual, shot). It is straight. Proper repaint will take some work to deal with pitting, but it hasn\'t progressed for the past 20 years. Badge is present with red insert. Missing pedals. I may have them somewhere, but they aren\'t pretty. They\'ll be in the box if they turn up. Long spring saddle is iron dyed black and as such, it\'s dry and cracking. Fenders are in very good condition overall. I love the old Truss frames, but I\'m moving so I have to let this find a home.
Local Portland, Oregon area pickup free. Continental US only otherwise with shipping at $120(refund minus actual cost). In state possible delivery negotiable at reduced rate.
This is a rare antique item. I will add better pictures soon and upon request. It is your responsibility to know what you are buying, and my duty to make that happen. Nobody likes a bad sale. Please ask all questions prior to offerding.
Thanks for looking.

A more clear shot of the bike:
A little closer:
Head badge:
Left rear hub. Hub is loose, but you\'d want to service it before rebuilding if you did intend on making it rideable.
Front rim showing wood seam starting to separate. Rear looks identical, but both are relative true and surprisingly round:
Bars and stem:
From rear seat stays/cluster looking forward showing some pitting which is present in various places on frame. Paint is over 20 years old with no primer. Progression has stopped.
This shows the break in the fender brace that is hidden under the fender itself. It is structurally sound and looks fine from the outside. All the fender stays are nice and straight, not wavy at all. Fenders are absolutely dent free and round. No tears or deformation.
Saddle is in pretty decent shape for its age but has cracking and old cloth is exposed in a couple places. Looks good underneath.
