Are they mounts for spare wheels? They were bolted onto the front axle and then a spare wheel would be bolted onto each one, meaning you could ride to a race with your training wheels on, and still take your race wheels with you…

Yes they’re wheel carriers from back in the day, easy enough to fabricate although they make steering quite special…

They are used for carrying spare wheels to races. Back when people used to ride to a race these would be attached to the front skewer then you would rest your race wheels in them and secure the wheels to the bars with a toestrap.

They are to pry open the bar clamp on an old quill style stem to slide your handlebar through the clamp before tightening it down.

Clearly, those are ball mark repair tools. Is this golfrumor?

They are dropout tools for a mechanic to pre-set the quick release to the proper setting so that wheel changes would be very quick. One end is set for the fork and the other end for the frame.

They are spare wheel carriers that mount to the front wheel, so that you can carry spare wheels with you to races.
