It's the simplicity of the components and styling of the C&V bikes that I'm drawn to. If the newer bikes aren't so ugly then I'd like them more.

My thought exactly gugie, and I'll be to old soon, so at least "Clunker 100 Challenge" bikes I'm still riding need to go, & grand kids get the best of my collection some where down the road. Don
