Im surprised the detail police (ed and crane) are most enthused by it; with flacid chain, low seatpost, saddle quite far back (perhaps 5:6), a saddle that doesnt quite suit the track oriantated frame (or the colour if i may add), stickers on rims, low flange hubs, slightly long inner tube valves which incidentally are not aligned, single brown straps, the stem and bars' chroming mismatching, low flange hubs and of course grey sidewalls of tires which are far too large to be used on the track!

Small flange hubs, aluminium stem with chromed steel bars and 1-1/4" tyres are all appropriate details for a path bike, I'd have thought. The slack seat angle, set back saddle and minimal saddle to bar drop are also about right for a 1940s look. In those days, leather was brown.
