Bikes: Not as many as there were awhile ago.

Mr. Haney stopped again yesterday and told me to stop by to look at another bike, 1989 Schwinn Probe. Not quite the gem the last one was but the price was right, even though it has a seriously stuck seatpost. If you look at the seat post in the first pic you can see where some one went at it with vice grips or something. I have it soaking with MMO right now, if that doesn't get it I'll bust out the Kroil. I WILL get it out! Regardless, the tires are going on the Takara Highlander I bought earlier in the week, they are nearly new Bontrager gum walls.







Here's the Takara, guessing a mid-80's?



Group shot. Both bikes have identical Araya rims and they are all nice and true, the Takara rims are much nicer condition and it has Suntour XC Sport hubs, the Schwinn has Maillard hubs.
