Crescent Pepita Special??
Hi guys, man am I happy... I just picked up a great Women's bike for my gal and am wondering about this old Crescent.
I know the Mens Pepita was considered a decent Swedish race bike but have never ever seen anything about a womans model.... This one is exactly like the orange 1970 Mens shown on Classic R. (except for the downtube) and so I'm wondering if this was meant to be a woman's road bike , comfort bike, or something else??
Does anybody know what the deal is w/ this one? My girlfriend is going to flip after I clean it and surprise her w/ it... she no longer has an excuse to steal my Raleigh 5 speed for Sat morning coffee!
Thanks
