+1 These are amazing bikes and very rare it is a great find when you get one that has a lot or even any of the original components. At under 30lbs with all the kit rack, fenders, light, pump and chrome they where something execptional for there time. Modernized quit a bit with nice alloys the one I had wieghed in at a fairly legit 23/24lbs which is amazing for a early 60's Radrunner light touring bike.
