Nice find on the NIB Blackburn racks. Huge fan here. Still riding with my early 90’s Blackburn... Indestructible!

Possibly - I'll keep you in mind if I don't

This is a chain holder to put some tension on the chain when the rear wheel is out. Helps prevent paint damage, etc.


Dummy brake levers for the stoker handlebars on a tandem. Gives the stoker something to hang onto.
