There is a difference between a flipper and a preservationist. People who restore bikes usually get them when they are in very bad shape. Then they start with a complete disassembly, a thorough...

We have a bunch of flippers around here, too. One of them swiped a Raleigh Grand Prix for nothing. This is why I dislike vintage bikes. There's always the idiot who hoards and brags about finding...

What a catch, and super-high mileage to boot. It's like he is selling a used car with 200,000 miles for the price of a brand new one. No thanks.

And he'll probably get his $750.00 for it. I have yet to find an old Schwinn Le Tour in decent condition on Craigslist for less than $200.00, and even saw a "worthless" 2003 Giant ocr3 with an...
