Wow. Look at the size of that low sprocket. The bike is already K.O.M., and has not even left the garage! Looks like a re-spray, but it should be a full Vitus 172 tube-set.

Besides needing a new seat & tires (I have those) I wonder what condition the other 'consumable' parts' condition might be? Alas, too darn far to fly for an up-close inspection for me, even if I could manage to bring it back with me.
Somebody else who'll give this some TLC then ride this again GRAB IT QUICK PLEASE!
