Old Puch that was in a storage shed for the last 15+ years. I'm acquired it and am going to make it my winter commuter - thus the aggressive tires I've added. Other than the tires, longer seat post, and different seat those are my only modifications so far. I've order some bullhorns and Cane Creek brake levers that I'll probably put on this bike. For now I'm leaving it geared as the back rim is to damaged to warrant converting to a single speed. I'll probably go SS when I find a better used 27" rear wheel.
Fun bike to ride - glad its getting a new lease on life.
