My wife and daughter are not "bike people". They like their mixties. Nothing special, just older Peugeots, fenders, baskets, racks, obnoxious bells. My wife's needed virtually nothing as it came with aluminum rims and a 3-speed hub. My daughter's required new wheels and drivetrain to rid it of the plastic Simplex/steel rim mess. It went fairly smoothly, especially since French cartridge BB's are now more readily available.
