Sorry for the negativity. I should explain. I don't mind low end bikes at all. I've owned and enjoyed several. But a low end bike which is also in bad or unknown condition is likely to have surprises. Those surprises might be deal killers such as stripped threads, a stuck seat post, or whatever. There might be a mechanical reason the bike was tossed in the trash.
But I certainly don't know. Maybe it will go together fine and it won't cost much.
