repop bikes - columbias and luxury liners

[Tychevelle]

There's a few forsale locally. Are they any good? Correct me if I'm wrong but the Columbia repop was basically exactly the same as the originals? How's the quality etc what should they go for is one worth more then the other?

They are still very nice made bikes, I have had a couple. The RX-5 Columbia and Western Flyer are nearly the same bike, both made in the Westfield plant from Columbia designs, the Columbia accepting a 13/16 seat post and the Flyer a 7/8, not much difference other then that. You can't go wrong with one of them, in my opinion there quality is as good as most of the originals.
