Is it aluminum at least? Only cool thing about these bikes is you can usually take off the stickers.
Yeah, even with the minimal repairs this one needs if you can't do the work yourself and don't already have parts laying around fixing it is pretty pointless. As to being aluminum, I hope not because if it is somebody filled the frame with lead! No it's steel LOL, it still feels like the frame might be filled with lead but at least the rims are aluminum. I have an old pair of steel MTB wheels I should clean up and throw on it to see how effective V-brakes are on wet chrome.
