I was thinking of singlespeeding it. One of the reasons it caught my eye (other than being Austrian) was the internal cable routing for the rear brake. What scares me is that the rear brake bridge seems to be just a flat piece of metal and I think the rear dropouts are just crimped in the stays. I thought I remembered people saying the Austrian ones were good. I know it's not the 531 model. If it was I would already be happily involved in rebuilding it. So is it good or bad? I know nothing of Austrian bikes. I certainly don't need another bike as I already have 3 nice ones and 2 mediocres. If I understand correctly, you're saying it's a step up from Huffy but nothing special. Right?
