Can anyone id this thing? im going to look at it tonight. A guy has it for sale for $30. I figure i cant go wrong. I asked him but he didnt recall and was across town at the time that i called.
Looks like a persuit maybe or a reliant?

it ended up being a reliant. Not too bad of shape .....it is a 1980 - 81. IT appears to be all there but needs to be cleaned up good.....and although the tires hold air..they are original and will need to be replaced. I dont figure i did too bad here.

I am not sure about the fork, but I don't think I would fool around with it at all.
