thanks folks, some good responses here. the guy i bought the bike from had the bike for 12 years since his boss gave it to him. he thought it was new at that time so i assumed it would be a 95...
yea the wheels are kinda heavy but they 'feel' like they are bombproof. i dont have shoes for those pedals, would i be better off buying different pedals and shoes or finding a pair of shoes that works with the looks? i have never had anything but clips and straps before...
