I guess they're original, but you gotta get those reflectors off the spokes. Please. Keep them in a drawer somewhere. Beautiful bike. Great clean-up and rebuild as usual.

I rode the two bikes I got this week. Got the 1940 girls Blue Ribbon on Monday and an Italvega fixie on Tuesday. My first fixie. Fun but, your legs always go round. ALWAYS.

I noticed a bracket as part of the front fender for the truss rods. You can see it in the picture. I've never seen this before. Is it special?

I've ridden it up and down the street a few times and the tires have held up. Am I lucky and should get new tires or ride till they fail? Cheng Shin nylon tyres.

Picked this up on marketplace for $40. Might be 1940 according to the serial number. Horn works, light doesn't. Also why is D. P. Harris known as Snyder?

Bike or ?

All your other bikes usually get the full treatment and are just beautiful. Would you clean the grease off the bottom bracket, with just rags so the inside grease is left alone. Or is that too much and kinda devalues it. It seems kinda perfect. Just curious.

On the road again after 25 years. Early 70's(I think) Bob Jackson frame with mid seventies Dura Ace. Taken apart cleaned, put back together and a rattle can and Magic Marker paint job. Quick 11 mile loop. Feather river in picture.

I got divorced a couple of years ago and now I do most of it in the living room, unless it's warm then I work in the front yard. They say divorce is expensive because it's worth it. You have to decide for yourself.

Buon Natalie means Merry Christmas in Italian. My dad was named Nathan Giuliano born on Christmas

Motobecane and a 1955 Schwinn. Same year as me.

I pm'd you. I'll take it.

Is it 26 or 28”. Thanks
