Georgena Terry Classic
I thought some might be interested in this Georgena Terry Classic I found on eBay. When I got the bike it was a little rough cosmetically but appeared to have not much riding time on it at all. It was rescued from a storage facility where it must have resided for quite some time. I totally disassembled the bike, cleaned, lubed and went through everything. I replaced the bar tape, bottle and cage, pedals clips and straps, new seat and a computer. The tires were fine and I didn't need to replace anything else. This bike had not been ridden much before it was cast to storage, it was just scratched up. I mixed a paint match in single stage and touched up all the nicks and scratches with my air brush, then I frame saved it. Now it not only rides but looks like a brand new bike. The bike is for my wife as she always wanted one of these Georgena Terry’s. Now she has one at a fraction of the cost of a new one. She seems happy so I am happy..........
