Title: Curtis Cruiser 1983?
Post by: Hrcplag on February 20, 2017, 06:38 PM: Hi. A few pictures of my Curtis Cruiser after a quick clean and finally fitting the decals I got from Brian and Gary. The chainring will have to go as it's too big but only ride it around the block once a year anyway ::)

Yeah, I was going to get them reproduced in silver but do quite like the subtle look. Will have to see what I can sort as Brian wanted photos of the bike before he would send the decals. Apparently there were some fake frames?

Erm... yes they are.
I had it for years before eventually finding out what it was then realised I shouldn’t have drilled it out.
