Finished off this bike for Recyclistas the other day. Tuned up, installed new cables and bottom bracket. Replaced all the rusty fasteners with fresh ones, and rebuilt the wheels. Replace shifters, crankset, etc.
Not too happy with the brake levers - they're plastic and really spongy. Chain's still rusty too.
It started out as a junker with a stuck seatpost. Stuck seat posts are becoming my specialty, so far.

It's now on the block for $150.
Yes! whenever bicycles are broken, or menaced by international communism, Bicycle Repair Man is ready!
