New Project Bike at Coco's: 45cm Centurion Road Bike


Our most difficult bicycles to find: modest, quality road bikes that are sub-50cm. As seen above, we have not started on this bicycle. It needs a lot of attention. It will be stripped and rebuilt. There are about 10 bikes in the queue for refurbishment before this one, so if you have been looking for a small road bike, I would suggest placing a deposit on this bicycle and having it built to your specifications. This is a quality bicycle, originally purchased at I. Martin.

Want a single speed with a straight bar? A ten-speed with a Brooks saddle? We can build it as such.

The wheels are shot, but we have a brand new set of 26" x 1 3/8" steel wheels for it. Those are a little tricky to find.

Measures a tiny 45cm, but it rides even smaller due to the smaller wheel size. Sure looks like it is adorned with hand pinstriping.


Lots needs to be replaced, but not these cool CatEye handlebar plugs. We have rootbeer-colored cloth bar tape and, if it is not custom built otherwise, this will bike will ride again with brown cloth tape.

Want to buy it as a project? Ok. Call us before we start on it.
