Pictures, my boy, pictures.
If you need help walking through how to get them on here, email me. Otherwise go straight to Photobucket and come back when you're set up there.
Rod brake bikes can be English bicycles from the 40's or 50's up through their modern descendants build in Asia as commercial and commuter bicycles. They're sometimes referred to as "roadsters". Yours sounds a little different, and intriguing with this back band brake. I remember bikes with that being covered extensively in Popular Science in the 80's... but I don't know what brand they were ever sold under.
