Puch A-D Pathfinder back on the road

Here is my story about this bike. When I was about 14yo, I mowed my neighbors lawns for some extra cash. My bike had just bit the dust and my neighbor offered this bike to me for mowing his lawn a few times. The bike is a Puch A-D Pathfinder. I am not sure exactly what happened but within the first week of having this bike the rear derailer went into the spokes and bent the rear axle and destroyed the derailer. Long story short, I am now 28 and decide that I am sick of riding a mountain bike around so I decided to finally fix the Puch. I wanted it done right so I took it in for a minor overhaul. Had the rear hub rebuilt, new axle, skewer, cones, bearings, grip tape, and all new cables. I took i out last night for the first time in 14 years and it rode great. I have researched the bike but there is not much out there. I know it is not a high end bike but I like the color and the look of it. Thanks for reading my story. I hope to get many miles out of it.
Jeff

I like old bikes and I cannot lie
All you mothers can't deny....

If you ride it and it feels good, that's all to it!!!
