Colson Wall Hanger

[John Gailey]

This bike sits above my collection and stares at my finished bikes. I sit with my beers and look at it thinking what to do next. It'll be my only custom.
It's a Colson LWB with triple step rims. Something will happen eventually...

Throw a chain & saddle on and take it for a spin!

Put a Mattel VRROOM Engine on it. Maybe some multicolored streamers and a yellow plastic squeeze horn on the handlebars.

All of your suggestions are held in very high regard. Your profound input will be considered moving forward.

Very cool base on which to build! I really like that frame. The beer whispered "track bike" to me...just sayin

It must be set free from its captivity. Open the doors and let it be free to wander the great expanse.

You've got a good platform to start with! I'm thinking it'd look good as a board track racer, complete with a wood tank, or, if you want people to think you've really gone nuts, make it look like an enlarged Schwinn Krate bike, complete with a banana tank to complement the banana seat! Honestly though, I'd say just get it riding and figure out where to go from there. Looks like all you need is a seat and a chain and you could ride it as is.

I too stare at my prewar wall hanger- the only custom I've ever wanted to build, maybe my last who knows? But this build is prewar electric and Im gonna ride the wheels off of it.
