Well Fenders are out so what do you guys think about this Chain Guard? So those fenders will be up for sale soon. What do you think about these chain guard? my plan would be paint it flat black with the inset part green. Does it look like it's up to high?

I agree no fenders, hope the chain guard works out.

Got the fenders and not sure i like the look. What do you guys think? Do I even need them. Would be nice to see with and with out a chain guard.

Started to paint the new Seat Post. The gusset will be green and the rest will be flat black, so I need to tape off the green and paint the black. maybe tonight I may have found the seat clamp I need, we will see. Fenders are here and the front bolts right on but the back one will need some...

I was thinking Chain Guard: Black with the inset Apple Green Fenders: Black with some sort of Design (maybe a "W") in the Apple Green. Nothing to fancy, i'm using Rustoleme Spray paint Seat Post: Black with Apple Green Gusset

What size are the tires? I was hoping to buy some 700 rims and use 700 x 40 on it.

Lets me how they fit. I have an old Colson Motor Bike frame that needs new wheels.

Are you guys saying to flatten both side of the axle bolt or just one side bot do the opposite side on the two side of the wheel. it looks like it wouldn't take much maybe just threads. This options mean I would have to drill out the Truss rod holes.

I bought a Huffy Cranbrook today for $35 and was hoping to use parts to make my prewar Colson. The tried to use the wheels but the axles seem to big. Can those be changed? I plan to use the crank chain and wheels, that's it. Any help will be great. My real goal is to make the Closing a ridable.

Does anyone have a listing of Colson serial numbers?

Okay I started taking this apart and found a serial number but can't track it down. 4L1909 on the bottom of the bottom bracket Any help would be great
