Yeah, real old Huffy 10 speed, with the 2 chainrings and 5 rear. I'm gonna have to go to century cycles and get either an adapter (hopefully they have it, its not on their website), and I'm gonna special order some cyclocross pedals i found for 16 bucks.

And sorry for sounding so stupid, as i've never seen presta valves before. I am frustrated that i wont get to ride this bike, its just gonna sit in my house taunting me.

Ugh, I hate waiting, I waited 2 weeks for the bike, and all winter to ride.
