Sears Tandem

[Heavy Pedal]

Picked this up at a garage sale Thursday. The bike has been painted over in blue over the original black paint. Would like to remove that blue paint, but oh well. You can make out 'Sears' on the chainguard, and it has Sears in a circle on both tires. But the pedals say Columbia on the sides. I asked how much, the guy scratched his head and said "Is 5 bucks o.k.?"
"Yeah... thats fine!" Does anyone happen to know what year this bike is? I went over it quickly and saw no #s. Thanks!!

$5? :shock: Score!

Not sure on the year, what wheel size is it?

Interesting ow the frame is all straight lines except for the seat stays.
Nice.

That is definitely a Columbia...a pretty old one at that... and I do mean pretty!

Synch those cranks!

I'm really liking that frame.
After syncing the cranks, point that thing south, leave now and you might be able to make Tandem Night.
