I know it isn't really worth fixing up but I like the color, the (not so elegant) lugs, the paint is great and there's zero rust inside the frame. But probably the biggest reason I'm justifying this crappy bike is my girlfriend has the matching stepthrough frame and she really likes riding them around downtown so I guess it's easier to fix than find another matching set lol. Or maybe i just need to find a tandem and get rid of them both! Anyway this would probably work along with a freewheel right? Weinmann Zac20 Touring Rear Wheel - 26" x 1-3/8, 5/6/7-Speed FW, 36H, Silver So with those and the matching front wheel it would only cost like 75ish bucks plus aluminum rims would make it a little less terrifying in the rain so I guess it would be worth it... Decisions decisions.
