So I was riding down the road on my garbage day run, found this nice very old banana seat bike, however, some older lady called me over, I stopped she told me she had an old bike that I could have, she said I proberly wouldn't want it but to look anyway, so Heres what I also got aside fromthe old banana bike, I belive it's a ccm elan I think.

That seat looks like it was designed by someone who wore Depends. I see street people on a bike sometimes with that very wire basket packed to the hilt, tooling down a busy street.

Looks like a diamond in the rough to me. Clean up as much of the crud as you want then ride it. Who cares what it looks like as long as it goes.
