Well I would consider myself lucky! I recently was out with my sis in the car and I see this black bike on the side of the road, and im like its mine. On the way back went up to the door and the guy said take it for free. I was extremely happy.
Overall the bike looks great. Its a black frame with decals. Im pretty sure it has suntour componets. 5 speed in the back, 2 in the front. The frame is in great shape. Its mostly the componets are the worse part, but still good. The front brake is rubbing against the tire and I am trying to adjust it and I dont know how. Help?
So I tried to google it and I couldnt get any info on this bike. Does anyone know any info about this bike. That would be great.
I am planning on putting the stem on my bianchi that was replased with a smaller one when I got fit, on this bike. I did some rough measurements of the bike compared to my bianchi, considering the bianchi is fit to me.
Here are the pics. (big pics)








Thanks alot everyone!
