Nice bike.
I also have a Columbine touring bike. Mine is a real beater compared to yours, but I love it that way. It rides as nice as yours looks though. It came with cycle cross tires on it which I thought was a little strange, but it is the best dirt road bike I have ever ridden.
I like your saddle bag. I've been thinking about one in the same shape sew out of Filson Cloth with external leather toe straps. I currently use a mini envelope style bag sewn from 1/2 a tube tote.
Do you have any other photos of the brake setup?
I am also interested in sources of information on Columbine bikes.
Thanks, Tom Stanford Weatherford, Texas
