Which Colson would you keep?

[Archie Sturmer]

I would choose based on how many bikes that I had with tanks that extend forward of the head tube (0) versus how many rainbow bikes or those with split tanks.

Well you could sell a Schwinn or two, then be Island Colson instead.

 

[Mr. Monkeyarms]

Let me make this easy for you. Keep them both and sell a Schwinn!!!

I guess my Bullnose needs to come back home to me? I miss that bike bad. Should have kept it.

 

[Robertriley]

I like the bullnose because it’s different but the snap tank is OG and looks like a great piece of history. I’d keep the snap tank because it tells a story. But really, I agree with some of the wise words above, sell a Schwinn.

I'd go with the blue one just because of the curved fender struts. Assuming they both rode the same.

 

[Hobo Bill]

thy bull nose is a mighty mouse of a fine ride...no doubt

 

[Dave Stromberger]

I like the Bullnose best, however the snap-tank bike has original paint and is already "done", while the Bullnose is a good restoration project. Tough choices like this are the reason I have too many bikes!

 

[John Gailey]

I see the snap tank is running free out in the fields while the bull nose is stuck in the dark basement.
I think you have made your choice.

I'd keep the bull nose.......
