A nice bike isnt a clunker or a beater!
Exactly! That's what this challenge is about. What will weigh heaviest with the jury: your finding this pristine Colnago for $10, your riding a POS garbage find for 100 km's or the amount of elbow grease you put into your €40 Atala to make it into a nice rider within $100?
