I just got back from a ride on my Varsity cruiser. Installed MTB handlebars and 26" coaster braked rims. The Varsity is the bike to take a leisurely ride of about 10 miles. Next to it in the garage is my Univega Super Strada with original Dura Ace AX components. Taking up space on the left is a Univega Gran Turismo. Univegas were not the best or cheapest bike in their day, just the best value for the bicycling dollar ever.

A Viva Sport was my first real good bike. Won't hear anything bad about them. Wish I still had it today.

No snob here- until you get down to the Huffy level. Even then I can appreciate the odder styling exercises they produced. Just don't make me ride one.
