Hi just did a trade with a friend who picked this up at a yard sale.Luckily it was too big for him so he traded me for a smaller bike I had.Its a 72 grand sport deluxe,I added 700c wheelset and fenders.So far I really like it rides really nice and I'm a sucker for orange

Beautiful! I have an orange Mondia that I love and I too have a fondness for that color. I wouldn't buy an orange car, but there's something about an orange bike I can't resist.
