Hello everyone. This is my attempt to recreate 1920's style single speed townie bicyles. Both bikes are Windsor's from Bikesdirect with new saddles (Brooks). My bike has a front rack and handlebars off an old Dutch bike. Both bikes have new cream tires as well as cool Velo Orange chain guards. Don't like the cheap cranks, actively looking for vintage looking replacements for both bikes. Also, looking at fatter cream tires for mine, have a set ordered, should know this week if they will fit.

The second bike is a mixte version for my lovely wife. In the last pic you can see we were in a 1920's costume contest in Dallas at Heritage Park and thankfully we won.
