Well, I've chosen a 3-part solution. I placed the empty box at the curb for tomorrow's trash pickup. I've repurposed the fork as a leverage tool for prying roots, raising heavy objects etc. I cut off a piece of the steerer to recover the star nut and capped the end with a plastic plug. The frame now resides in the attic until I decide its final fate. If I do place it on the curb someone will definitely pick it up to sell as scrap metal, so it will in some small way benefit someone. The are no bike kitchens or coops near where I live, and I seriously doubt any of the locals would have any use for it. One idea is to put the seatpost and saddle back on it and use it as a work stool. Ingenious, huh !

Edit. What do you guys think ? I mean, how could I toss the Vilano with its two dope BFSSFG stickers ?

Maybe I should start a new company named Vilano Steel Bike Furniture, LLC.
