i got this one from criaglist (wasn't listed under bicycles) for $20.

No idea what it is. Have vbrakes and 7 speeds. It's powdercoated orange, but was sprayed black (orange peeks through some places). I'm cleaning up the chainguard now and should get it back on by tomorrow. No idea what I'll do with it. Oh, and it came with the u-lock with key and cable lock (which I had to cut off since the owner had forgotten the code). If anyone has any idea what it is, I'm all ears. It does have a serial number on the BB.



Second is a columbia clipper that I likely paid too much for. It has character. I'll likely keep the parts and sell the frame/fork.

It had the wrong size seatpost so I borrowed one from another bike and flipped the bars.

no clue on the foreign cruiser... well maybe id guess a Next as they like to use the wraparound chainguard alot, but that is a loose guess. as for the columbia clipper, i have one very, very similar to it that was the basis for my first project cruiser/3speed convo back in like 98'. im guessing early 80's by the graphics but the unicrown forks throw me off. i like it. :mrgreen:
