 | | Since Howie Cohen's passing, no items are for sale. | | Leo Cohen Jr., Howie`s younger brother, was born in 1941. He was deeply involved in the family bicycle business starting from a young age. We grew up spend our spare time at the family bike shops and in our teen years we became seriously involved in the business. Leo was very instramental in growing the business and in the later years negotiated the sale of WCCSC to Medalist, a publicly traded company. This picture of Leo was taken in about 1989 at which time he was retired from the bicycle industry. In the future I will add additional information about Leo here and in the meanwhile I will start to put some images & information in the picture gallery as the images & information come to my attention. |
