1940 Colson

by Dave Stromberger · March 8, 2003

This months Bicycle of the Month is a 1940 Colson owned and restored by Ted Lusher. Colors are factory original along with the chromed fenders. Very nice bike featuring tube-slats rack, delta Defender tail light, NOS Goodyear G3 whitewall tires and a chrome seat chassis. The leather on the seat is original! Good job Ted!
