BIKE CONDITION
The bike is in good overall condition and free of bends, cracks and corrosion. The red paint still has a good luster to it with normal marks and scratches to be found throughout the bike. There are some places where the paint is worn away as well. The bike appears to be all original with the exceptions of the newer Kenda tires and possibly the chainguard.
This bike has been fully tuned by a shop mechanic with many years of experience. Then the bike was given a thorough eighty three point inspection by the owner. Finally the owner rides the bicycle checking steering, braking and shifting. After you receive this bicycle minimal adjustments and assembly will be needed to be ready to ride.
