Set it up to ride and it felt great, comfortable over bumps, good speeds 12 speeds, about 22lbs. Just says Rivera no GT and has power shifters. Will go nice with my other bike and old Bottechia campy.

Oh Hi, new to this forum but ride every day. I'm known as guitarman on video electronics forums like avscience.
Glad to join in here and thanks for all the info.

I picked up a chain skipping problem on this bike with the smallest sprocket. Is there an adjustment on the suntour to tighten the tension? It looks like there might be, there's a cover over the spring with a screw on it. It looks like maybe you and spin it to tighten the chain up.
