Sure, crankset and stem are both sellable, as is bottom bracket if it is OK. Of course, it has stuck stem written all over it. Saddle may be sellable too (low price). Some people rebuild them. Seat post may be stuck too, if not, put in your parts bin or donate. I'd save the shift levers too.


You will probably have to cut out the stripped dust caps.


Since I keep a rust bath going for small parts, I'd save the headset too.

Rescuing those parts will not only bring you some $$, but you will be helping someone out with their bike restoration. Parts live on to provide value to others. Win/win.


Got to love the knot on the end of the shift cable......
