Hello everyone,
My name is Nelson and ever since I saw my best friends columbia cruiser he rebuild, I was hooked and had to find my own to restore. I started on the search to find a columbia cruiser and when talking to a co-worker and finding out that he has a side business with bicycles I had to ask him if he had an old skool columbia cruiser. Make a long story short he did have a columbia frame that he would sell me for 40 bucks along with other parts that would fit the bike, and then it began. A few weeks later after alot of hard work I finally can say that I have somewhat restored my first ever cruiser. Let me tell you that I am hooked. I have no idea what year it was made because the serial numbers on the bottom of the frame were really faded and worn out that I could not make out the numbers. The only thing I know is that it is a clipper by columbia. I hope you all will enjoy the pictures and if anyone has any info on this style bike that would be great. I am very excited to be part of this forum and look forward to learn from you all, thanks.
First day I brought it home. I could not save the from emblem b/c it was a decal that was dry rotted.
Almost complete I have a few more ideas that I want to incorporate.
I love the way this picture came out. I took this with my wide angle lens.
