About a month ago I found a 1989 Nishiki Blazer on CL and ended up buying it for my wife. She wanted a "beach cruiser" and I figured this would be a good base for one. It was in great shape, just needed some new life put in to it.
I added new white wall tires, seat, handle bars, grips, brake levers, pedals, bell, and of course a basket. I also upgraded the brake pads to Kool-stops, and it stops on a dime now.
She loves it, so that makes me happy...and I'm glad to keep a good bike on the road.
