Ah ... the Continental. First ten-speed I ever rode. It was a friend's big-sister's bike -- probably about a '67 model in Coppertone. I remember I was barefoot when I rode it and those rat-trap pedals hurt a bit, but I was determined to get it into 10th gear. I was flying! What a thrill ...

The bikes weigh about 37 - 38 pounds depending on frame size, so figure that into your shipping estimates.
