This was listed on FB Marketplace as “bicycle project”. A 30 minute hike, 30 minutes of bike repair (installing a seat, pumping up the tires, and adjusting brakes), and $60 later, it was mine! The ride is so smooth, the shifting is so smooth, and it’s so fast. This will be great for some fast rides locally in the spring and summer.

Very sweet bike! I’ve got a helicomatic hub on my TREK 720 touring bike. It’s too bad they didn’t take off in popularity. Not sure why.
