Centurion Black Road Mixte Bike
Hi all, just wondering how much would this be worth:
Vintage Road Bike
As a short person, I realize that short bikes are hard to find and probably more expensive - I've been on the search for a year now for an affordable, small road bike.
DETAILS (from what I know):
Centurion, Black, "Vintage" (unsure about the date), seem like a Mixte frame or a lady's style frame, and apparently "14 1/2'' frame". Keep in mind that the poster has also listed that there is new shifter and brake cables, the bike is a 12-Speed, 2 chain rings on the front crank and 6 chain rings on the rear hub.
I'm thinking about offering 100$ but I'm hesitant as I don't know much about bikes.
Thank you!
(This bike is meant for a short 5' 1'' female)

Hi Trubbs, welcome to the forum.
It looks pretty small like maybe it has 26" or even 24" wheels, and 14.5 sound small for an 'adult' bike. However since your so petite it may be worth checking out. If it looks solid and clean and you like the way it rides go for it.
