A few years back I found and painted the yellow rack to match the fenders but it had a switch by the light that wasn't right ( its in the tank on this model ) so found the correct rack but haven't decided weather to go black ( still have to age it ) or yellow on the rack?, this is my least favorite CWC rack!

Black or yellow rack?

I bought a pair of single speed AA from a collector in Carlsbad Ca. yrs ago, used the girls to complete the boys ( my red repaint CWC single speed ) & the fenders & lite went on this bike, the girls do have a switch ( and other models like Tall Tank & Comet ) but I did paint that rack yellow and don't remember if it was on the girls or why I had to paint it, I had yellow caution paint from work.Think I told this story here ( and to Phil ) I bought this bike out of a dormitory at So. Oregon Collage in 1987 while visiting relatives in Ashland, found it in the local for sale paper. Phil was kinda bummed I found it up his way and he was looking for a boys. I just added the yellow parts.

black rack,to much yellow,black offsets it nicely imo!

Black.

Black with yellow accents might look good.

I agree, black with yellow pins somewhere on rack. I think it could look good with yellow rack if you refreshed the black on frame/fork. Either way I like it--Go Hawkeyes! side note: I thought 41 had the Snyder-built fork and 40 could be either frame with the cwc fork since there was no Snyder springer yet.

BLACK LOOKS GOOD

Weathered black, since the fenders and light are already yellow and only the frame matches the tank. A little more black would help IMO.
