With only around 18 total votes on survey for the build I feel feedback was a bit lacking to get a better consensus. You like the bike and ride it. IMP that is all that really matters.

It turned out nice and he certainly looks happy with it. Love seeing people do things like this for other people.

If you bought some and they did end up being 2.1's you can always return them to your local store. It's a fairly risk free purchase. On the Hutchinson site in the spec they list these tires as only being 33tpi. I'm trying to decide if that tread pattern would work okay for me. I mostly ride...

Good question. I hadn't noticed the size on the box in the pic. On their website and what little I have skimmed online states 2.35. http://www.hutchinsontires.com/en/urban-touring/44-low-rider.html This build used them and the ones he used were 2.35...

Thanks for posting the info about these. You can get them via their website as well. They show up as being on Rollback for $15.33 as of 1/13/15. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Hutchinson-Lowrider-26-Tire/20434424#about I'm considering buying a set today and going with the free ship to store option...

Oh that is no problem for you. Just buy one and paint it that way. Just be sure to color coordinate a proper riding outfit for it when riding. But I am sure you were planning all this already.

You are most welcome.

You might have already seen the later pictures and info about these in this thread. http://ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/new-1937-columbia-3-star.89201/page-2

As others have already said at least a bike like this is being made available to the general public at a affordable price. Sure it's Chinese and not of the best quality but little is of the most ideal quality and cost these days. Since it's currently a department store bike the frame will...

Returning a broken wrench that broke because you ground it down is not ethical in my opinion. I have only done this modification to inexpensive wrenches. If I was to do it to a guaranteed name brand and if it was to break, I would view that as my fault. Not the fault of the wrench or the...

I fully understand. Even if could justify the purchase I would have a hard time squeezing them into a building. Which is sad considering how many darn garages and building we have. Hopefully they find a good home because they look to be in really nice and mostly original condition.

Those are two nice bikes for a reasonable asking price in my general area as well. But I don't need anymore bikes. Are you interested in them?

"Sublime Food at Ridiculous Prices". Thanks for sharing this jewel of a video.

Agreed built by AMF and is basically the same as their Jet Pilot. It certainly does look great. Probably won't be to bad to find fenders. The seat is there and that is normally missing on many of these.

There is so many things wrong with this picture on so many levels.:grin:

Nice find Schwinn Boy, I like it. If it were mine I would clean it, make it road worthy, and ride it. The tank looks like it is from another bike to me but I know nothing about bike tanks. My guess is just based on the inside and outside colors compared to the bike.

That site works fine for me as well with Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox browsers via a Windows machine. Both browsers are up to date as well as plug-ins.

I want to say thank you for your post and for explaining some detail about your friend. I'm really glad he does all he can within his capability and people like him always bring a smile to my face and some spark to my own life. My friend has significant mobility issues and therefore I didn't go...

I have a disabled friend who wishes he could assemble a bike but sadly he cannot. In your opinion does he rank below the "anyone can assemble a bike"?

Maybe it's full of rolls of duck tape. :D
