that range is US though so I'm wondering if it would be different to the conversion. Plus, this is the 1st vintage bike I've really seen on CL that has sparked my interest. Most of the ones I've seen are Free Spirits and not women type bikes either.

I dont know enough about bikes that I would probably even understand anything about french threading.

Still waiting to hear back from the seller for more pics/information..hopefully I can get over to look at in person soon too and get a feel on how firm they are on the price.

Thanks for the help
