I like what you did Stucky, great story!

Anyway, I'm not going to fix it up because it's too large for me anyway. And almost needs everything repaired or replaced. Shifters don't work right. Brakes won't stay centered. Tires deflat over night. Wheels need tuning, etc. I could learn to adjust all these things and probably get it riding again, but it still wouldn't be worth $40 to sell.

So I found a shop that accepts old bikes and they fix them up, or use parts, and donate fixed up bikes to a local charity that gives bikes to people that need them. They even give a helmet and lock with each bike given to the charity.
