Great bike for riding around the city. Brooklyn. Coney Island. Traditional chro-mo aka chromoly frame. Aluminum rims on the wheels. Alloy seat post.
One small repair was done on one of the front brake caliper/lever. The rear brakes were a little slow in springing back. So the calipers were removed. Posts cleaned and lubed. That wasn't the issue. Rear brake cable and housing were removed. Cable was removed and was spotless. Lubed the cable. Cable housing or cable had a slight bend somewhere. So that was taken care. Cable end snipped clean and re-capped. Rear wheel removed and cog wheel removed and everything cleaned and overhauled. Both wheels lightly trued.
Has a water bottle cage. Comfortable hand grips. Rides nice and comfortably. One bicycle wheel reflector was missing. I put a spare on for you. The chain was cleaned and lubed.
Velo brand seat. It's comfortable. Serfas brand tires. Model: Vida. With Flat Protection. 700c x 38 size.
FSA brand crank set. 175 arms.
FSA (brand: Full Speed Ahead)
Measurements:
In the photos pictured the seat is at it's lowest point.
34.5" - Ground to top of seat.
24" - Ctr of crank set to top of seat.
27.75" - standeover in front of seat.
The bike is marked with a sticker as 17" OR MEDIUM I would say.
There is approx 3.75" of unused space of the seatpost below the seat to the frame. The frame geometry is a raked style (On an angle). This causes less metal to be used on the frame.
There is another 6" of space on the seatpost to the insertion mark. Plus another 3" to the botttom of the seatpost.
For myself to ride the bike I raised the seat up 1.5 inches. I'm 5'6".
Therefore the bike sizing range would be approx 5'5" to 5'11. Maybe 5'12.
Thanks. 20 plus years of re-conditioning used bikes for re-use. Bike shop employed (Two bike shops history. Including 1 Trek store.)
The bike is ready to ride and needs a new owner.
