Leader Voyageur 3-speed Folders Found...

A neighbour put these old 3-speed folding bikes out on his front lawn with a sign that said, "FREE".
Obviously stored indoors for the past 40 plus years.
Dusty but not rusty and the Shimano 3-speed is very crisp.
Good (original) tires and the chromed rims very close to perfect: no wobbles, blips or dings.
Actually not bad for what they are.... about 30 pounds of decent fun from circa 1978.
The frame was made by ESGE in Germany, and the drive parts were made in Japan by Shimano and Sugino.
