Nothing wrong with a Softride beam bike, but I'd be very interested in how the ape hangers work with that suspension stem. Try it out and let me know.

the 'Ferrari of race bikes'!!
I mean, he's been 'offered up to $3500 for it'.... so it's gotta be worth at least $1000, right?

Never before has the pronoun "THEY" been more appropriate.

Motorized bicycle - $325 (Waterloo)
https://madison.craigslist.org/bik/d...615471729.html
Stopping a mostly steel bike, plus rider, plus engine and fuel, at 30 MPH, with a '70s vintage single-pivot caliper FRONT brake with apparently original pads, and NO rear brake?
What could possibly go wrong?
Bonus points for the seat post hardware reversal, to put your jewels even closer to the tankful of volatile and caustic fuel. and for the probable 1mm clearance between the left crank arm and the muffler. At least in this case, you can't dis the seller for a "non-drive-side" pic.....

Sent a note to them about six months ago. Since, the price has dropped $20 but no adjustments. Where is their head?
