I was looking for a new bike just to have on the side, I found a couple this is one.

He sends me this message about what exactly everything is, "It was a 1980s Nishiki 10 speed that I cleaned up a few years ago and gave it a basic paint job. It's a good frame that is Reynolds 531 steel and did not have any rust."
and he'll take 100 for it.

these three for 75, he says he has the wheels cranks and everything with them but they're off right now.

I was just wondering if any of these bikes would be worth getting?
They're very close and cheap I wouldn't mind spending the money if they were worth it.
I am just not very sure on if they're good bikes or worth the money.

I appreciate your replies ahead of time.

hey if he will take $100 for the first one, I would say go for it. If you are in the market for a SSFG and it would be your first bike, a cheap conversion could be a good place to start (wheelset alone is probably close to being worth $100)

A little confused by the others, as they are just frames with 'free other parts' or whatever he said. Are you looking for your first bike, or a good frame to convert?

either way that nishiki doesn't seem like a bad deal. I'd buy a brake, and foot retention though..

It wouldn't be my first, I have a fixed gear vilano right now, Just looking to upgrade a little. Something a little more "better" I guess.
I will definitely put a brake on it, I would never ride brake-less, I have a friend who lost his face from not having brakes, couldn't stop in time.
I also have some foot retention's here that I no longer use.
But I was liking that one for sure, so I am most likely going to go see it Wednesday and possibly nab it from him if its as good as he says, and it looks in the pictures.
I appreciate your response, Thanks.

uh... neither of those are upgrades...

Stick with what you've got.

I would save that $100 for toward something nicer. You're making more of a horizontal "upgrade" here.

Okay thanks, I didn't know that's why I created this.
To get help with things I didn't understand yet.
Thanks again.

I appreciate this a lot, Happy I made this so I could get answers on things I didn't know.
Thanks again.

The Nishiki?
Is it Reynolds 351? The ones as for here (Aus) weren't but that doesn't mean they make them. Without the sticker, it's not 351 ... but its been repainted and any sort of new sticker means nothing. There's probably some way of working out what it is but in the mean time, maybe assume it isn't. Ride it and if you like the game, value it on that (I love my Europa but she's only chromolly).

I hate coloured cranks, you may not, but what is it? If it's just a cheap something, you may find yourself buying another - I bought a set of cheap coloured cranks the destroyed themselves under the pressures of bike polo.

What are the wheels like? Are you going to live with them or replace them?

Regardless of the comments above, and I'm not challenging them, the question is, what is it worth to you? It you really like the frame and can see her building a nice bike that fits into your squadron, $100 isn't much to pay. We tend to get too wound up about names and bands and stuff.

That's what I was afraid of it was fake, Cause there is no proof its real.
The crank I am not into colored cranks at all, I am not really into bright colors.
But the crank is a Origin8, Not sure if they're to good.
I mean I do like the bike but then again I don't want to fall into another "nice" bike then it not be so sturdy.
I was wanting to keep the wheels change the crank and put a brake on it.
That was pretty much all I was going to do.

That Nishiki is a good deal for $100 the wheel crank and chain are worth that alone. It would be more of a lateral move than an upgrade but go check it out you might like how it rides over your Vilano. The other frames are not really worth it unless you want to build them up and try to sell them. I just picked up a complete rideable but rusty with bad tires, Schwinn like the gold one for $10 yesterday. They are going to be pretty heavy and have American sized bottom brackets (bmx, one piece cranks). Origin8 cranks aren't too bad they are a good entry level part. They are made by a company called Lasco and Origin8 puts their name on them.
