I am digging the bars! Sweet bike all in all. The bars and complete lack of paint remind me of something I have cooking. Oddly, also a Colson.

Don't worry, the seat will go down a hair.

Thinking of some sort of leather strap to hold the light.

Looks great Slacker

I also have a 39 Colson with a similar frame as yours. Lots of cool bits on your bike!!! The stem, pedals, sprocket, blade forks, seat..Etc...

Here's my 39

The seat is French. In Ideale, which is less than ideally comfortable. I call it the Donkey Wedge. If you get my meaning. Way less comfy than a Brooks.

Been looking for one of those chain guards for ever. I have the Colson "bird's beak" guard, but it doesn't fit. I'd be happy to trade for the correct guard if anyone sees one. Same goes for a tank. I know, $$$$$$$$!

Here is a better shot of the really old school rat traps.
