I looked at that thing down at Thrift Town in San Leandro a few days ago; they had it marked $39.95. Is that where you bought it? How'd you get them to come down to $20? Usually they won't budge. I finally decided to pass because it had too much wrong equipment on it; saddle, levers, shifter, pedals. That, and the sheet metal was all dinged up.Oh -- by the way, it's a 1971 S-22 Sports.
