Follow up in case anyone was wondering (or for posterity), went on a 22 mile ride yesterday and the bike did great. The rider still has a lot to learn, but no complaints about the bike except...it's a 10 speed. I guess people were tougher back in the mid 80's or the world was flatter. Ran out of gears real quick and had to simply grind my way to the top. Since the point of me biking is exercise, though, I can't say that's a bad thing. Just something to think about if you're considering going vintage and live somewhere hilly.
