About this bike someone gave me,
The only decals on it are on the top tube reads "Western Flyer"
on the seatpost tube "10 speed"
and on the front of the headtube "Western Flyer"
looks to be an old American made bike, with ashtabula style crank
Shimano rear derail, stem mount shifters and 26 x 1 3/8 tires and rims.
Frame looks as though it is a lugless design with no weld visible on the
main triangle.

Anybody have any info or insight into this bike?

Unfortunately, I know them intimately.

You own the beta version of Carl's "Fury"; before they were
worth all of $59.95.

You have a Columbia or Murray Ohio built bike-shaped-object
that can be made to work if you're hellbent on that. But it
won't ever be as fun or useful as a similar era (1970s/80s)
Japanese bike.

Dear Andrew,

Actually, I think that I got more fun out of the Fury
Roadmaster than I would have gotten out of a drab
touring-style bicycle.
