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
