Cruisin' on my Bluebird
Very nice example of the 98/99 reproduction orange krate. I’ve bought too many here lately and can’t keep them all . Paint is very nice with only one small scratch I see that stands out as shown ( 6th pic ) . Seat is near new with no rips . .Chrome is nice all over with the exception of a few inches on front rim . Great rider . 450 picked up in SW Ohio or buyer pays actual shipping via bike flights .

The seat and grips are definitely better than the 2020 version. On the other hand, no drum brakes. On the third hand, Amazon is out of stock on the new one. Definitely a fair price for the bike.

Upgrade suggestion, if this bike has a 28 hole rear rim, which I think it does: There's a three speed Sturmey Archer rear hub with a drum brake that will just fit, and can be found for $70-80.
 
One of the best years repos in my opinion. The frame was made using original 72 blueprints where all the other’s didn’t and welds were not the same. They used rivets on the fenders instead of nut and bolts and screws on the head badge where others used rivets as well plus the stem was much better than the aluminum one. If you really look at these closely you can definitely tell the difference in quality from Taiwan vs China, good luck with the sale.
