Rear wheel is/was froze and bearings missing as is the chain. Cup and cone Bottom bracket is in good shape no pitting or rust. The 7 speed shimano derailleur still shifts but is missing both jockey wheels. I hope to be able to fix it up into a single speed for a elderly lady who wants a bike but refuses to ride one with gears. Any body have any suggestions on how many tooth rear cog? I cant remember what the front chain ring is and I cant go count right now.
22 or 23 works for me
