So what would you have done?
So... I'm riding home from work last week, and I see this:
Kind of needs tires, but it does ride nice. :-)

Is that original paint?

Seriously, it's a sweet bike.
(edit: here's a slightly older ladies 10 speed 'burban I'm setting up for our oldest.)

It seems as if that bike went to a good home then .
Is the ladies version to be a singlespeed, or is it just not quite finished?

The ladies bike will be a 7 or 14 speed, depending on whether I hook up the front derailleur. The wheels are 700C's with sort of generic alloy rims. It had been a 10 spd, with fairly rough paint. The rattlecan job is OK unless you look really close, but it's doomed to be nicked, I'm afraid. I have the crank & brakes on it now and need to sort out the cables. There's an SRAM 7 speed shifter on the bars, and a 7 speed cassette in back... It ought to be workable if I can get a derailleur and a hanger...

I'd totally have taken it, even if only for the mirrors!
