Hi everyone!
Im very new to the biking scene. I just bought a vintage womans Mercier road bike to restore 1980's or earlier. I have a schwinn beach cruiser i love but too heavy to lift up and down stairs, so i thought i'd get a road bike :) Since idk about anything about bikes or how to fix them, thought i'd join to get some help. So far im just trying to get these darn cottered cranks off. Restoring is a lot harder then i thought it would be! Im considering taking it to a vintage shop, they're kinda pricey though :( Im looking forward to getting input from here! God Bless from Huntington Beach :D
