Early Colson Flyer Racer 1900 +/-

[Hb Twinn]

This is an early racing bike. As far as I can tell, this is the earliest known racer. I got it a while ago as a wall hanger for my office. Moved and now have to liquidate my toys. Since acquired, added an early person racing seat and repro leather wrapped wood grips.
Asking $2000, feel free to make an offer.
I'm in coastal Orange County, Cal and local pick up is preferred. I do know how to pack for shipping if you wish, all at buyers cost.
I have a ton of pix, and once I can get them on the site, they will be. In meantime, feel free to contact me for pictures. This is the same white bike I bought through the cabe awhile ago, so pix may already be out there in internet land.
Questions are also welcomed. As I'm not on this site a lot, please leave reasonable time for response. If you pm and leave a phone #, I can call when convenient..

Bill's probably talking about this one that I sold him last year.

Wheels are tied and soldered and has beautiful original pedals.

 

[Hb Twinn]

Yes, thats the one.
Thank you for posting the pictures sir!
I've just added an early persons racing seat and the reproduction leather wrapped wood grips, I felt they matched the bike better.
Just been hanging on the wall since I bought it. Now, it's time to move on to another caretaker.

Oh yes …… I put an NOS head badge on it before I sold it to Bill. Got it from "catfish".
