That's good to know about the recall. If I end up keeping the bike I'll look into replacing them. If I sell it I'll add in that info. It's a 1996 bike, has been neglected and left outside for who knows how long. I picked this and a nishiki up for $20 to give me something to do, so I'm trying to keep it low cost as much as possible. My plan was to just get them going again and find a new home for them, but I'm starting to like the bikes. My garage went from 4 bikes (mine, wife's, kids) to 9 in a matter of a few weeks lol
