Sorry for the disrespect. You're right. For what they are, the Varsitys and similar models, they are really excellent. Extremely well built.
There's a woman down the street offering me a ladies Collegiate Sport for $40. It needs work, which I can handle. I think I know someone to sell it to. But it has 26 x 1-3/8 tires, which I believe are NOT standard 26" tires, and it needs tires desperately. If I can find them, I'll buy the bike. If not, no thanks.
