1956 J.C. Higgins

[Re-Cyclist]

Thought I'd put this Higgins up for comment. I picked it up a while back, but I never got around to taking a picture of it. Now that I'm bored stiff with the cold weather I decided that it was time. She's 100% original right down to the tires.

That Higgins is one sweet ride. But I'd like to hear the story on that radio, too.

The radio is a 1959 Phonola.

thats like mine right down to the tires but yours has better chrome than mine

Your's is also very nice militarymonark. Have you tried "Never-Dull" wadding polish on your chrome? I've used it on other bikes with some success.

 

[militarymonark]

yes I have that but my chrome is really bad especially the rear fender, seems like the chrome on this bike wasn't all that great.
