I just can't decide what to do with this 1969/1970 Sprite. It is a large step-through frame (green) with the original Presstube rack. It must have been stored near pool chemicals or fertilizer since the head badge is corroded a bit. The original downtube shifters were donated to another BF member (left shift lever broken). The rest of the bike is in good condition.I put used trigger shifters on the bars, and worked on getting the bell crank side functional. Now I am thinking that:
I could move the 5 speed rear wheel to a Raleigh Sports that I currently use; and move the 3 speed wheel to the Sprite, and sell it. (that would make the Sprite less desirable)
I could sell the Sprite as it is with a 5 speed rear hub. (that would keep the value)
I could part it out. (probably make the most money, but I hate doing that)
BTW: I have a perfectly good step through frame Raleigh Sports for my dotage; I bought this one because it was there.
