I can believe it. I wish I could have seen a Rhoades Car before I bought one. I must shoulder some of the blame in that regard.

If you're thinking about buying a Rhoades Car, don't. Save your money and have a look at something like http://lightfootcycles.com/products-...-overview/atc/

They seem to get pretty good reviews from riders.

I think my Rhoades Car has greater value as scrap metal - it is worthless JUNK!!!
