Chris Paulsen Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Here is another unknown item I just came across. It looks like it could be a bicycle oiler, but I am not sure. It is 39" long, and the brass tube at the top is about 3/4? in diameter.Thanks,Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Binger Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Chris,Didn't the 1907 Thomas Flyer that won the NY-Paris race have something on it like that to oil the chain as they drove? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Paulsen Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 You're right. I think they had a funnel at the top on the Thomas. I think I am going to change my story anyway. Thomas-Flyer has a nicer ring than unknown bike parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
