Replacement Bent Wood Top Bows for Folding Buggy and Surrey Tops SOLD INDIVIDUALLY

Our high-quality hardwood top bows are available in sizes ranging from 38" to 58" (in 2" increments). The size is measured from the outside edge of the bow to the outside edge of bow. These are bent from stock that is 1 1/4" x 1", with ends left long (typically 16–26" depending on the size).

These bows are unfinished to allow for precise fitting, shaping, and cutting during the assembly of your buggy or surrey top. Note: To minimize shipping costs, bow legs will be trimmed as necessary. If you require a specific leg length, please indicate it in the order notes.

Looking for hardware? We've got you covered with both Three-Bow Buggy Top Hardware and  Four-Bow Buggy Top Hardware.

    High quality

    Posted by Jim on Aug 5th 2024

    I am helping a friend restore his 1910-ish Doctor's Buggy. I found everything that we needed to finish the top at Hansen's. The great description and ordering information on their website made ordering the correct parts easy. The bows are made from select quality wood. The bending for the bows was done cleanly and accurately with no warping or splintering. My old Stanley 151 got a work-out shaping these, but the wood worked beautifully and finished smooth. I was also very impressed when Hansen called before shipping to verify the length that I needed, so I could try and save a little in shipping. I can recommend these to anyone restoring an old buggy.
