ck up a bike today and I couldn’t stop starring at this beauty. He said it’s not for sell. So after about 4 hrs of bulllpoopting with one another I was loading it up. Along with the original bike I was going for. Something about the leopard solo polo. Idk but it’s one killer bike. I believe it to be all OG minus the tires.

Nice score... Is that a blue band or yellow band 2 speed? Also for reference if it was an original 2 speed bike it would have a caliper brake on the front fork..

It is a yellow band. Thank you for the info. I might have to swap the wheel out on the little dx to make it correct.

What’s weird is I just looked at the catalog for 64 and I guess the deluxes didn’t come with 2 speeds? If so I didn’t see any with front brakes??

Two Speed (blue bands) were first offered in 1965, which came with the front caliper brake.
However, you could have a dealer install one on a 64.

That would look really good next to my original '64 standard...
