Welcome to RRB :thumbsup::forum:

Nice ride , oldskool cool :thumbsup:

Welcome to RRB , cool whips btw I especially like the 27' varsity with the ape hangers :thumbsup:

Sweet king sting , I dig it :thumbsup:

Ford thanks for the bike knowledge , either way it's a cool bike and I'd enjoy owning one myself one day

Definitely cool vibe and yes art in my opinion , although only problem I'd have is would be choosing a bike to ride ? Lol :banana::forum:

Good platform for some performance upgrades , no doubt

As I said , I maybe wrong ? CWC and Colsons are similar in design I'm no expert lol

a trek 3700 has a good stock drivetrain and CL is littered with them or any trek model in general , for a donor bike if you don't have one

I'd definitely go with triggers and some Kore 2 MTB grips or classic Oury's , twisties shorten your grips and are prone to problems

This is my rear derailleur (Suntour AG-5000 1983) and Maillard France freewheel dated 1983 still working after 33 years and og shimano uniglide MTB chain 3/32x1/2 (date code 3F 1980)

Googled the bike , looks like a good get around town bike and some lite trail action , like the added support on the seat post

Clean and lube the derailleurs front and rear while you have it apart, and KMC makes a good chain and very affordable all bike shops carry them or Sun-Lite brand

Or find a donor bike with some used good condition rims with a cassete instead of a freewheel ? Which ever will work and provide you with many enjoyable bike rides as my bike is a freewheel and works just fine

Chains tend to stretch and freewheel cogs wear quickly if you ride the same cog often , get a new freewheel and chain and adjust the rear derailleur with the barrel adjuster you should be fine a quick inexpensive fix or find a donor bike laying around , I bought a bike last year from a yard sale...

So I seen a forgotten beach cruiser today , red vintage murray Monterey was on the side of the road had been there a while and flat tires and rusted chain and dry cracked seat , and I rode home to return to pick it up and it was gone , would of been a good build bike to make into a bmx cruiser...

Awesome sauce , nice cruiser and yes black and gold is my 2 favorite colors on a bike :thumbsup::rockout:

Looks like a Colson from other pix I've seen ? Cool bike though , unsure of the year ? Maybe mid 30's to 40ish cool seat post and dropouts

Great minds think alike ....... , my urban bomber (83 Ross Mt Hood ATB) is in my living room , something about a black and gold bike from the 80's lol
