Double Cushion Wow!!! You don’t see those everyday. Very nice bikes. Colson really made some cool bikes.

Outstanding parts! Your dedication and talent for reproducing otherwise unobtainable vintage bicycle parts is rare. It's really great to see function returned to these Colson Cushioners. How did you fabricate and bond the rubber inserts?

That was the easy part. I paid a company that does it every day. It was also the expensive part too. They had to make a form to hold the two parts together while bonding the rubber and metal parts.
