rob, you're more than welcome to ride it. i don't think you'll be able to patch your tube in time for bike for heart. i've just been lazy as hell and haven't redeemed my other bike from the pawnbrokers..er, i mean cavern.you'll have to stick your wheels on 'em.. i only have a front brake on it though. the bike's complete except for wheels, saddle and pedals. i busted my chain ring and was forced to spend $50 on a replacement at urbane because someone at cavern couldn't hook me up.
the new ring is 44 down from 48.. i hoping to make it into a ss for the girlfriend but the gearing might still be too high.
