search for my post today. I have one completed. my email is [email protected]. Can answer most questions you my have..

One thing I need to change on mine is to not use a straight rear seat post. I am going to use the original (I think) set back post. I didnt use it because I would have to modify the seat with some sort of reducer since the original seat post is about 3/4 diameter. Good luck, looks like you...

I finally finished my restomod 1933 colson. Got a lot of advice from this site and one member made the steering rods for me. Couldnt find a lot of original parts so I used what I could find. If I ever so find some of the same parts you are looking for I'll swap them out. It sure is fun to ride...

I think I found what I need. For some reason i could not think of the word headset. I found WALD 1" headsets. Thanks to all for the suggestions

I might try that if I cant find any. They were pretty rusty and all the balls fell out once I soaked them in rust remover. I'll take another look at the cages. Thanks for the tip. This is such a cool bike but you are correct it wont get ridden much. Just having fun getting it back to...

PERFECT!!! Thata exactly what I was hoping for. Huge thank you

I will try that. Might even go to a bicycle speciality shop and see what they. I'll be in dallas next week and I'll look up a bicycle shop or bearing speciality store. Tha is for responding! Tom

It did come with bearings but I dont know to describe them for a search engine on the net. For instance 'caged bearings with 9 quarter inch balls' or 'caged bearings bicycle' . I guess the best way to explain my question is if you were looking on EBAY 'what would you type in the search...

Good point... sorry about that. I was reading he wanted info on the pic he posted. Again sorry

See my posts further down on this thread. I know the bike well because i am resembling mine now. Email me at thament99@gmail I'll give you my number and I'll tell you all that know. It's a skiptooth with 2 sprokets, one to link to the front spto link to the front rear bottom bracket. Rear...

The cutout is because there is an offset center that when turned moves the front crankset forward or aft so you can tighten or looking the chain . I'll post a hand full of pics of the parts since mine is still apart.

I think 33 or 34. I know the frames changed to a curvy bottom bars,. My 33 is just like to one he posted here. I learned this by members on. This site. Hardest thing to find is the rear steer shat with the small skiptooth sproket that drives the front forks,. Awesome bike. The seller that...

It's 1933 or 1934 Colton tandem rear steer ism restoring one now

Just need a quick lesson on caged bearings. Stupid question here but I'm not sure how to find the proper caged bearings for the front and rear steering headsets. Do I count steel balls and the diameter of each? Not quiet sure what the search term should be. I see caged bearings listied as a...

It really does. Otherwise that was a nice bike...

Looks like it was hit with an RPG

Hoummm. This one is different bike I think. Other one did not have hand lever on left side.

So it is true the some colson tandum s did not have chain guards??

Great paper you sent. That tells me.everyrhing. cant thank you enough!!

THANKS.... off to the plating shop!!

Would a 1933 colson rear steer bicycle have chrome pedal cranks and sprockets? Am trying to restore. Hard to find origial parts but I'm trying

Beautiful seats. Any chance you would know what 1937 Colton tandem seats look like? I don't but I need a pair, just don't know what I am looking for since I have never seen any. My current project had a junk pair of blue and dirty white worn out schwinn seats. If you can supply a pair (...

I am "restoring" one now and have the rear steer all rebuilt like new. Was a real thrill getting that steering shaft out but I did and get it ready to go back in as soon as I get the frame back from powdercoat. My question may sound stupid but I ham having a really hard time finding good...

Thanks for the reply. I'll put out a want list

Got a bucket of bearings or skiptooth chain?

Still got them? I am restoring a 1933 Colton tandem rearsteer. My chains are pretty shot so I can use some.

Tumor yes but benign thank goodness. Any idea where i can find reference material on a 1933 colson tandum bicycle Trying to find out what pedals would be close to original Whats on it now are what i think are more modern all metal with big teeth thay dont have typical blocks Not sure where to...

This thread was fun to read. A month ago I found one of the 95 anniversary schwinns and got it for $90.00. Hey they were asking $100.00 and was craigslist so i had to make an offer. I love it and it's my centerpiece at my antique shop. (300 sq ft in a big mall) and it is marked NOT FOR SALE...

Many thanks for the detailed reply. Sorry about taking so long to get .back on this. Ended up in the hospital with brain tumor. They got it out and I am sporting a new acricylic plate and titanium mesh plugging the whole. Am doing great and no memory loss except for memories of my x-wife...

That's sort of a bummer. I guess I should have done .y research before buying. Mine is 14 years old and is I mb perfect condition so i saw it as at least. 450-500..looking at sold bikes on ebay some. Went for 700-800. I keep it in pristine condition for 10 to 15 more years Looks good in...

I'll swap you a 1933 colson tantem for the bus :) man that is sharp. I bought several of those drop strands on Ebay for my wwhizzers Of course they are not the colson but they look exactly the same even with the latch piece to hold it up

Great info. I ready paid over 50 for a non adjustable one. I don't have and bad threads. I need to add about 1/2 more threads so I work with it and see if I ca. Get it started.

I called Pacific cycles and my serial number indicates it was built in 2004 and is a signiture series was sold thru independent dealers only not big box stores. They told.me the signature series were higher gauge steel and spokes. That's about all I learned fro. The call. I wanted to know the...

I rode several Korean models back in the 80, and they rode great! :)

Nice looking bike. I bought a deluxe 7 today and it looks very close but I know it has to be a k ock off. I cant cross the serial number but t does t say annIversary or anything. Sn is SNTCA04C05724 but schwinn database doesn't regonsize the number. Here is pic

I just read that schwinn has two lines of bikes. The one for the big box stores and the signature series which is sold by.the.higher end bike speciality stores Supposedly the quality of the signature series is superior quality I just bought a cruiser deluxe 7 and it I am trying to find out...

Excellent info. I will give it s whirl. I replaced the section of the tube with the threads with one from an old huffy. Threads a 5åå the same as the nut spun right on. What I have to do is add another 1/2 " of threads since I cut the doner piece a little long. With your i.format i'l on I...

Does.anyome know how many threads per inch are the threads on the one inch tube for the handle bar neck. I ordered a die but it was 24 tpi and doesn't work so I was wondering if anyone knew for sure. Its seems to have been the same since my 33 colson is same a a new huffy and schwinn. The dies...

I an on search of the peaked fenders for my 1933 colson. Also would like to find a horn/light for the front fenders am also curious about the difference between mens and ladies janebars and seats Although I'd like to completely restore this bike to factory.sta.dard but due to mylack of...

Finally got the parts to put my rear steer.tandum back together. Only one thing I need and that is the measurement of the rear steer post from top to bottom of the threads. I got the bottom half or 3/4 of the post and just need to weld on the top half with the threads on it. Simply put...

Thanks. Maybe I can find another one. Colson parts are hard to find so I might just have to 'adapt' and use non colson parts

Is this from a Colson tandum? I need a couple of them.

I have been searching for a rear steering tube or pipe that connects the rear handle bars to the small skiptooth gear at the bottom. I am hoping to find one so I can put this bike back on the road. The old one froze inside the outer housing over the years and then finally broke in half leaving...

I 2nd a guymake mine. Eaachh of the rods are adjustable. I believe I paid 80 shipped. They work perfectly. His email address is [email protected] Good .luck and if God come across steering shaft I will be most interested. I have the gear but the tube that runs through the frame to the...

looking hard for a Colson rear steer post that goes from the rear handle bars thru the frame to a skiptooth sprocket that bolts onto the bottom. Mine rusted and broke in half. I got the old part out and now trying to locate a replacement. Will even buy the goose neck and bearing cap. That's all...
