sure, i gave her the last ride, pretty long distance, rear tyre was flat but i managed to go as fast as i was convinced it was safe. Just selling the wheels made me recover the money and have nice parts such as cranks, stem, handlebar

South American rust looks pretty nasty.
Hope you made a few pesos with the parts.

Wow. That's pretty impressively eaten from the inside out. Perhaps it was a floater at one time?
