BIKE CONDITION:

This bicycle is in good shape and a perfect candidate for a full restoration. The bike has been re-painted a long time ago so it looks good as an as found Americana piece. All the nickel plating has been painted white. The seat has a few miles on it but there is enough there to restore. Nothing has been done to this bicycle and we would recommend a full tune up before riding.

This bicycle is being sold as is, please see photographs for details.
