I found this at a garage sale today. It wasn't outside with the sale items, but the was an old Trek 830 Mountain bike with a price tag on it($30). I asked about the Trek, and the owner said it was on hold for someone that gone home to get money. Anyhow, the seller said
" I have this old girls bike that needs a lot of love(flat tires, rear wheel not mounted on bike, & about 20 years worth of dust)".
It is a Nuovo Sport. If anyone has any info on this model, please feel free to shed some light for me.
I was on a bike ride at the time, with my son, so I didn't have a means to haul it. I paid $25 for it and went back later to pick it up. I have never had a Mixte pass through my hands before, so this is something new to me. I thought it was a gray bike, but after getting it home and wiping through a bit of dust/grease, I found a beautiful dark metallic green with gold highlights on the lug-work. This will clean up nicely. It looks to be a low mileage bike with all of it's original hardware, and a bonus of some ESGE(before they were SKS) fenders.
