A couple of JcPenney bikes from the 70's. I know they aren't anything special, but I figure this will be a better alternative for commuting to school than my new Bianchi Axis Cross Bike.

Here are the links...

Oh and the WSD one is for the Fiance

Damn... around here those would be priced at $150-250.

Oh really? I thought they were a little over-priced. I was going to offer the guy $100 for both. Evidently the front deraileur on the WSD needs some tweaking.

I don't think they're worth 150-250, but that's what Craigslist sellers seem to think they can get for old gas-pipe ten-speeds that need new everything.

I thought maybe it was just because I'm cheap.
