Not a Colowflow, but the next best thing, IMHO.
Definitely a Deluxe level with the beehive springer and full rear rack.
Wheels appear to be original dropcenters too. Overall, and excellent survivor.
Value? I’m thinking $300-400, but I could be low

Droolworthy bike, regardless of collector value.

 

The light mount on the front fender looks like its for a batwing light...



...I would estimate right around 1950 on the bike.

 

1949 Higgins Color Flow
In 48 they didn't have the beehive springer fork and in 50 the back rack and tank style changed ?

 

A 50 Colorflow would have a different frame, and ports in the tank...I believe. If it's a '50 it would be something other than a Colorflow.

However, it looks on my phone like the word 'Color' something on the guard...if so, there were Colorstreams as well as Colorflows and it would be a '49.

 

Might of been deluxe model . But they didn't have a beehive ?

 

Thx to all ... anyone there who can sell me the front light???

Beehives were an option on the Delux and Colorflow (Colorstream?) in '49.

There is a lot of new reproduced Batwing lights on eBay...nice originals fewer and further between.

 

This is the best deal I see today .
