Tonight I picked up 2 bikes for $25 each from my next door neighbor's garage sale.
The first is a Japanese 70's bike boom knock-off called a Campania Sport. Nice name. I wonder what name they were going for? It is kind of like my Korean Rolex; heavy, but in good shape and functional. My 14 year old will lug it up and down the hills of NW MO.
The second is a Raleigh Aluminum Technium 440 in great shape. It looks like it will be a nice upgrade from my old Schwinn Woodlands MTB.
Happiness is a good cheap bike. Anyone have any advice on either of these models?
I should tell you that a suggestion to send them to the metal recycling plant is not welcome. ;)
