So I have owned these bikes plenty of times in the past but finding one this complete is really a treat look at all the crazy pivot points for the drum brake bike looks like it will clean up well

On My model 36 Columbia I made all the brake parts from very good pictures and measurement. Turned out great and work well ,but I would not want to stop on a dime.
