Bicycles With Wings...
The nearest approach to flying yet attained. The experts who perfect
ed and the makers who produced the Chainless Bicycle are public bene
factors. No noise. Ne breaks. No friction caused, by exposed driving
parts. No attention necessary. "You buy the wheel the Columbia
Chainless does the rest." Not an hour of time taken to keep the Chainless
in order for a year. More durable. More handsome in appearance. Less
expensive "in the end." Absolutely satisfactory under all conditions of
use. The Columbia Chainless stands tonay as the greatest achievement of
America's oldest and most modern and complete bicycle factory. "You
see them everywhere." They are
STANDARD OF THE WORLD.
