Hi Michael! So I took the bike back and the guy exchanged it for a raleigh sport which fits me a little better. It had no tires and I later found out after getting tires next door which set me back $81 that it needs gears too! how could i have over looked this. I have a bike that looks like an english 3 speed but its an english 1 speed? no thank... now what should i do...?

meanwhile

i have 2 bikes in NC that ill pick up over christmas and both need tires as far as i know. Im going to sell one and use the other as back up i guess if this raleigh gets stolen. i need a billion locks in new york city especially with new tires and a brooks vintage seat. i dont know anything though.
