Well, I knew it had to be a mixte, so I called it. Guy said "yes" it's still available so I went over to see it. Great shape. Good paint, tires, frame, etc. So I bought it knowing I could make a few bucks. Then I looked up at boy's 10-speed racer and well the pictures will tell the story. Put it this way, I couldn't get my money out fast enough. Vitus 979, Brev. Campagnolo, Cinelli, Modolo, Saturne rims on Specialized Hubs, Galli Headset, San Marcos Supercorsa. Bad part it's not my size and needs a set of pedals. Here's the pics:
The size is 22"/56cm. I put on a new chain but I've got problems. The minute I switch from large front to small the chain goes slack by a lot almost dragging on the frame. HMMMMM!!!!!!
