What is this bike?
Hi all, I’ve inherited this tandem bike from a parent and I’ve decided I want to restore it. I’ll start this off saying I know NOTHING about bikes! So if someone could help me identify the year and model of this one that’d be a great start. Tell me the pro and cons if you could, and any tips you’d like to share. ( seems I can’t post pics until I have 10 posts :/ ) but the serial is JE075

You could go to the Introductions sub-forum and introduce yourself - that would be another post or two...https://www.bikeforums.net/introductions/
Are there any words or numbers on the bike other than a serial number?

We could use more info like number of gears, names on parts, etc.

Here is a 1988 Santana Elan with similar serial number (JE135): https://bikeindex.org/bikes/104637.
You can contact somebody at Santana Cycles who might be able to tell you your exact bike.
