Alright. Now market those things right, and we might have something.
As far as I am concerned I would just clean up an old Huffy or Columbia or Hercules for $15, but I think these bikes have legs if they put them out there the right way.
And, to return to the point of the OP: I think the re-emergence of bikes like this after a couple of decades' absence speaks directly to the fact that cycling is not quite dead.
