In the Washington D.C. Metro area - this bike w/o the damage would go for $150 easy. If the wheels were 700c it could go closer to $200.

If I could slap 700's on bottom line Schwinns and sell them for $200, I would. There must be a large portion of that community that missed out on learning common sense?,,,,BD

The fenders on the Free Spirit would do little to keep the road grime at bay.

While true that it is virtually worthless as a crashed frame, I think that bike would be well worth $80, even in my area otherwise.
I think some people just see zero value in anything that has the name Schwinn unless it is a Paramount. I would love to find a World Sport in my size for $80 (if it weren't crashed) even with a trashed chain.

Perhaps if you realized how foolish your comments are, you would understand why everyone is turning on you.
But then again, it is in your best interest to promote bent and damaged frames.

Snob or not that is a SERIOUSLY damaged bike that is practically worthless now, so any discussion on it is merely an afterthought anyway. Leave it out at the next heavy trash day, and it will be a lower control arm for a Kia by the end of the year.,,,,BD

You know, I could eat a bowl of alphabet soup and ***** out a better argument.
You certainly seem to be most resistant to facts, seeing that you mention that you're "open to more advice." What in hell keeps you from understanding that a frame that has been literally bashed in is safe and ethical to sell?
Remind me to sell you this someday:
-Kurt
P.S.: I flip bikes too - but unlike other local sellers, I flip bikes that are safe, ridable, and reasonably priced - not overpriced deathtraps.

Who looks more stupid? People who know bikes, or someone trying to sell a $25 bike(unwrecked) for $80? Even bigger smiles, lol.,,,,BD
