Cruisin' on my Bluebird
Ok so its not much of a “bike” at the moment but still a hell of a piece of history so I wanted to share it.
This is a French-made true brakeless track bike raced by a the Radebeul Germany team some time in the late 50’s into the early 60’s. Aside from the original paint and hand-painted graphics the coolest parts of this frame-set are the rider and team name painted on the top tube and the modified Nervex lugs.
Im gonna have to sell my soul to build this thing up but i want to build it right. Original running gear was said to be inch-pitch so it will be fun to gather all that together.
I saved this bike from being a bar-hopping hipster fixie....
Enjoy...
