    Help locking down the year and possible make

    Sorry to take up your thread but I take back what I said and I agree with bri. Looks newer then the 30s. There's a thread on here from 2009 look it up "roadmaster serial # help" it should steer you right and there's a bike in there that looks close to yours that's dated closer to the 50s.

    Help locking down the year and possible make

    its either a 36 or a 37. Those two years the double bars were closer and in 38 they were spaced out more to use a hanging tank. Also mid 30s had either a c or a w in a circle at the end of the serial number the only thing stumping me is in those 2 years I belive the serial # started with a j or...

    new 1937 columbia 3 star

    From my understanding pacific cycles did not have a hand in production of this and plans are in the works for another model with a tool box tank. Overall the bike is cheap. Classic Walmart huffy style forks horrible welds cheap plastic hubs with soft metal bearings. The truss rods are hollow and...

    new 1937 columbia 3 star

    The owners of columbia are doing these.they are renting out the licensing of their names and designs.. Pacific cycles are the leaders of China made bikes and this is not one. Supposedly they will be trying to bring manufacturing to the U.S. in the next year. I saw one yesterday at Wally world...
