Distractions and Other Necessities

Your Rollfast was actually made by AMF. In the mid 70s the firearms company Mossberg bought the Snyder factory, and DP Harris had to look elsewhere for bicycles. They turned to AMF, but AMF was not able to produce bicycles up to the same quality level as Snyder so the Rollfast brand disappeared. The AMF built bikes are quite uncommon. As for Mossberg, they got out of the bike business after a couple of years and scrapped the factory. PS: lower the stem before it deforms the steerer tube.
