First visit in several weeks but I found a few items of interest. First is a Huffy, unremarkable as a bike except it's probably the best quality production Huffy I've ever seen; lugged steel frame, three-piece crank, seriously nothing special but like nothing I've seen from a Huffy factory. I suspect it's a re-badged Asian bike.


One for the Bianchi lovers, this one a Special minus the wheels and some bits. In my experience, incomplete machines go really cheap here so if you see something you like it might well be worth your trouble to inquire. I can do some legwork if you need it.


Schwinn Cross-Fit. Hi-ten frame so nothing to get excited about.


Okay, Miyata time. First is a Six Ten frameset and some parts. Cosmetically awful, but probably worth saving. Dent in seat tube above the front derailleur but if I wanted one in that size I'd grab it.


Next comes a complete tall Miyata Seven Ten.


Last is a mystery machine. Thick white paint slathered over what was originally an emerald green frame, from the looks of things. Shimano 600 headset, semi-sloping fork crown, braze-ons and sporting geometry, short dropouts and single eyelets front and rear. I'm thinking Panasonic or the like.
