The bearings all in great shape. The rims are good, however a hamm fisted lug head drilled out the presta to schrader, some rust on a few eyelets. The chain is sedis, one link was frozen. The link was eventually actuated to only sticky, then I undid the link and cleared the rust. Chain has no stretch measured.
Some of the presta valve nuts have a neck on them that fits nicely into those drilled out holes.
