If he is fastidious and ably repairs the paint, he can rightly be proud... and vain.
Fastidious, yes. Able?
I was less concerned about the condition of the paint than I was with the late Suntour hubs, cycloid crankset, front and rear accushift derailleur, and the early geometry tange double butted cromo frame. At the least, I have a mtb frame that fits and should make a nice drop conversion if I desire. Central Ohio isn't known for its gnarly downhill scene.
