@Kramai88 can you measure the seat tube from center of BB to top? Also from the center of the top of the head tube to the center of the top of the seat tube?

@cyclingday I think the 24" may be a reference to the top tube length, the B10s were described this way:

You are correct seat tube is 20”. Top bar is 24” great information thanks

Looks much better.
How about a close up of the tire brand and the license plate?

The rear tire is original

Be sure and look down inside the seat tube with a flashlight to see if there is a build sheet.....

This bike's paint has mellowed perfectly. Almost looks navy in some pics. Beautiful bike.

And for my own knowledge. Did the cycleplanes come with a hornlight and the motorbikes come with silver rays?

Thanks

Ha now I see why you asked - I just noticed this bike has a hornlite instead of the Silveray and gangway horn. I wonder if it came that way, it would be unusual if that’s a factory deal.
