My colson

rollfaster · Dec 17, 2014

Just got this one from joel(509clunk). I'm exited this being my first colson. Made a few changes like swap out the tires for black walls, took off the Chainguard. Trying to find the year also. Serial number 42064hL or 1. Morrow hub date is k2. Will wait til spring to do a complete recondition on it. I'm loving this one. Rob.

If not mistaken, I'm thinking August of '41 (H1)

And hub is 2nd quarter of '41. You have the original wheelset! Congrats!!!

Dig the Scout badge. From what I've been told, they are usually a lower end bike, sans carrier & likely a guard. Great looking bike!

I have an earlier Scout badge I plan to use on one of my 36-37's

Great looking bike, looks like it'll make a perfect rider. I'm still a little bummed I didn't jump on it!

Thanks Joel. Those tires are exactly the same as the whitewalls. Put the whitewalls on my sisters 53 Columbia. She's been wanting whitewalls anyway so everybody wins.
