1965 Coppertone Varsity

[Salt Flat Cycles]

I picked up this bike yesterday. It's in really nice shape. It's missing seat, seatpost bolt, and has a broken spoke on the rear wheel. It's probably too small for me but it's hard to pass up a coppertone.

That is a sweet ride. Love the color , paint looks great. .You can make it work

A longer 21.1 mms quill stem

....and a 19 inch seat post. ( Both from eBay) Shifting might be a challenge, since the shifters are on the down tube . Enjoy your project.

Here's my '73 Varsity with the longer quill stem. The brake cables and speedometer cable still fit fine. ( I have since this picture, modified it to reassemble the Varsity Tourist, )
[ you can see pics of it on "What bike did you ride today"]
