Mystery Swing Arm

Forums

I assume this is an early Featherbed item but I've never seen one with this oval cross-section. (More stuff gravitating to my basement in spite of resistance).

Lightweight swinging arms are oval, Iâd have to remind myself if they are like yours!

That swinging arm is for the 500 to 600 Norton Nomads that were built from 1958 to January 1960. It was used with the 1958 Norton ES2 frame and also used Manx rear wheel adjusters.

As you are in the USA this must have come from these export only bikes as only one Nomad was ever sold in the UK.
