Nice pictures of a "BOX"

Ad was posted a year ago, and is still up! Once again, an overpriced ad from California! $750 for a used box is the deal of the century!

Well maybe they should post a pic of the springer for that price!!!! LOL

I did see the one pic of what looked like a spring fork in the box? But for $750, they should post more pics of the actual fork.

I guess if that one is worth $750 and it is USED, then my NOS fork should be worth $1000

I have one in the box I'll sell for half that price but don't really want to deal the OfferUp people!

So the Cruiser 5 is wider at the brake mount than a ballon bike? Or is it only wider at the rear axle mount/rear drop outs?

Crappy pics but, 67 CT, 62 Wasp, 82 Cruiser and a 74 HD. (2 Balloon, a cruiser and a mw).
The cruiser seat stays are as wide as a balloon the same distance from the seat post. The brake bridge is closer to the seat post on the cruiser. Cruiser doesn't have "X" stamped chainstays, also the kickstand mount appears to be 1/4 back on the cruiser.

I dont remember where i had heard the cruiser wasnt as wide as a 1950s balloon bike, but thanks you for setting me straight. Im not too familiar with balloon bikes but did they make a balloon bike with rear bridge like the one on cruiser frame? Is the rear bridge on HD and cruiser the same distance from seat post?
