I have for sale. 1917 Columbia Track Racer bicycle. This is what Major Taylor would have rode. It has the original paint and crankset.The fork assy is also original. I have 2 wooden wheels and the original Jacob fixed gear hub assy.The wheels in the pics are some late model rims added for pic purposes. I have pics from the 1917 Columbia catalogue that was sent to the previous owner from Columbia bicycles. I also have a letter from the Columbia co about this bike that was mailed to the previous owner. I have researched this bike endlessly, and have never come up with another one anywhere. This is a super rare bike. With a little work it would be beautiful. I am taking offers. I also might trade for a very very nice newer roadbike. Email if you are interested.
