I live for the CABE
I've got big plans for this. However, a change in circumstances means I won't be getting to it until this winter (at least), and I honestly could use the cash for another bike related endeavor. So with mixed emotions, I'm offering this up at the "I don't want to sell it price" of $250 shipped (CONUS), PayPal only. Feel free to set me straight on this here, or submit what you feel is a fair offer via PM.
I've tried to document it with photos as well as I can (which will make this posting load like crap - sorry), but don't hesitate to ask anything, or offer up any knowledge you may have. I've put up another thread on this, where you can find more photos and some discussion: https://thecabe.com/forum/threads/s...equested.153936/#lg=attachment1014439&slide=0
SN is K173446. Bike takes a 28" wheelset (see thread linked above), but is probably a balloon frame, as there isn't much clearance for fenders. I think it would make a hot 700c fenderless roadster, which is my plan for it. Red appears to be overpaint on top of original red. I believe white to be original. Unsure what the fork is from (suggestions welcome). I believe the chainring and crank to be straight and original, with little chrome loss. Pedals are unknown. Left spins freely, right is bent and seized to the shaft. Rubber is petrified but intact. I've been told truss rods might be correct. They are rather pitted, frame and fork are not bad. Crank spins smoothly and freely. Headset turns nicely, but there is a bit of a rough spot just right of center. I've opened neither the BB or headset. Price includes everything shown in these photos (not wheelset from other thread), will be broken down as required before shipping. I'll likely need a couple of days to ship.
I'm in Farmington, CT. If you can pick up, I'll knock $50 off
