I was in need of a bike for university, and came across this one on marketplace. It's a Swedish Mustang road bike, guestimating early 80's, with Shimano positron 5×2 gearing and Weinmann wheels and brakes. The seller had used it as a vacation bike since new, and otherwise kept it inside.
When I got it had cheap and thin (think Walmart store brand) tyres and tubes, so I switched them for a Vittoria Terreno Mix gravel set. The new tyre just barely didn't fit under the front stainless splash guard, but it's just an issue of the wire stanchion being too short, not a frame size issue, so I'll figure something out for that.
Next up is new brake pads and cables, as well as truing the wheels if I can find someone who doesn't do it for double the price of the bike.
