The crappy Columbia bike has a Sturmey hub and shifter, the only unWacky things about this setup.

Saw this on Farcebook Marketplace. According to the seller "Small dent on down tube - Just cosmetic, does not impact the frame.
No bends or breaks." That is the largest "small dent" I have seen in a while. Only $350 for the Cannondale F700 bike with the small dent.

If you want something like this, $550 is probably a decent price.

Official Chester Cheetah "Cheetos bike." Somewhere I have a photo of me on one of these posed in front a Rocky Mount NC bike shop. The bike had been shipped there for assembly and for presentation to a contest winner. Fifty bucks for this one.

Fork is bent. Frame is bent. It's in extremely grody condition. And it's only $500.

Average Bridgestone listing in Minnesota.
Bridgestone Mb-6 mountain bike - $500 (Cambridge, MN)
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...9638648027414/
Pretty clean aside from where it looks like it's been gnawed on.
