Bought this off eBay as a cruiser commuter, and changed out some components over time to make it a nice road bike for a beginner like myself. I learned (& still learning!) a lot of the maintenance and repair stuff working on this thing.
Recently started racing cyclocross, & switched out the Brooks for a flashy cheapo gel saddle that's straight out of the 80s.
