Here is my latest acquisition. It is a 1922 Columbia, Westfield Superb Single Bar Camelback. Forks are tweaked I will get those straightened. They were originally chrome which would tend to make this a fairly high end bike. I have my work cut out for me on this project. it is my hope to return this bike to it's former glory, possibly without painting it. We shall see, stay tuned. i will update with the parts as I gather them. Oh yeah, couple of other things about this bike. The year is 1922 and the chain is 1/4 by 1/2" pitch. Pretty rare. The wheels and tires (not pictured, but I have them) are Triple step and the rear sprocket way wide to accomodate this chain. Check out the aluminum pedals, for 1922!!! Just too cool.

Wow! What a great find. Some rare stuff for sure. Can't wait to see it done. IF you don't want that badge anymore I could use it for my arch frame!
