My girlfriend's son is in desperate need of nice bike to get around on, and I thought I'd see if anyone here had something that would work.
I'm looking for a 52-53cm c-t (31.5" standover) frame/fork CR-timeline or KOF, lugged steel, or a complete bike, same dimensions, lugged steel with CR-timeline or off-topic parts group.
Something less than $400 shipped, preferably with room for fenders, but not required.
The bike must be in clean, little-used, fully functional condition, needing a light tune-up at most.
A nice sport-touring bike like a Mondia Special or Motobecane Touring or Grand Record or one of the better Fujis, Nishikis, or Centurions, would be great.
Perhaps one of you has one of these smaller bikes taking up room in your stable. If you'd like to sell it on to a good cause--we're talking regular transportation here--please e-mail me privately. Pictures are a big help, if you can send some.
Thanks very much!
