Not Another Deal Or No Deal Colson Silver Ring Motobike

The puzzle is deeper, if that is a model C hub as it appears it would most likely be era correct. The front hub is not a colson hourglass hub though I think bike could have been supplied with a nd front hub and it almost looks like a war era blackout hub in the pics. throw some balloons on it and see if they fill up the fenders. No expert here I just enjoy this stuff. Rick

..and I see blue paint on the rear hub; is there blue paint anywhere else?

I thought it was blue paint too, ends up being some kind of cleaner or laundry detergent spilled on it. Best I can fiqure, original paint was a light green with orange pinstripes.

Yes it is a Model C Rear. Do you know if the front hubs are marked? It is black and I could not see any markings.
