Dumpster Divers Unite!!!!
I dive any chance I get. I usually end up stripping any usable part and disposing of the carcass back into the dumpster abyss. I've gotten some pretty good parts, usually pedals, brake levers and calipers and once a really nice chainring. Most of the time it's stuff like miscellaneous nuts and bolts and a seatpost clamp.
My greatest reward was a really nice "Free Spirit" 3 speed bike. I ended up taking it home to clean up and I was going to give to one of the secretaries at work. I left it outside my home the night before and someone stole it. Easy come, Easy Go!
