I bought a girls 3speed austria sears bike this past summer cheap from the recycle center at the dump, weird find being in Canada, someone obviously brought it back from the US. The bikes sears sold here were usually english made ones (raleigh factory?).

Its black, very light weight, a 2 piece crank, the serial number is on the side of the head tube and it has a shimano hub which works really swell I might add, much better than any SA hub ive ever had.

Mmmm, the bike is no longer in use however, being an american market bike I found the seat post was sized correctly for my old 40s balloon tired american made rollfast - I had been using a handlebar stem as a seat post (dont laugh.. the seat post size on Canadian bikes are wider, it was my only option!!)

I found the handlebars were nice and wide too, so I put them on my 1945 ccm.
