CONDITION
The Bike is in Fair Condition - Condition Rating: C- (6.0 out of 10)
It will require some work before it can be ridden
You may consider it a "project bike" requiring a full rebuild
SPECIFICALLY, THE FOLLOWING MATTERS WILL NEED TO BE ADDRESSES:
* The Frame has numerous marks and areas of wear and corrosion
* The Driveside Seat Stay has a modest indentation at the top I believe from a poorly used wrench
* The Brake and Derailleur Cables and Housing are in very poor condition and need to be replaced
* The Cable Housing Frame Clamps have corrosion and will require new screws and nuts
* Both Rear Derailleur Pulleys are broken and will need replacement
* The Crankset is dirty with old lubricant and has some surface corrosion
* The Tires have degraded and will need replacement
* The Rims and Spokes appear to be in decent shape
* The Hubs will need to be cleaned, examined and rebuilt
* The Front Hub has already been stripped down and the axle, nuts and bearings are being shipped separately in the bike box
* The Headset will need to be removed, inspected and re-packed - The headset bearings and or races may need to be replaced
* The Pedal bearings will need to be repacked - The Bearings may need replacement
* The Chain will need to be cleaned and checked for excessive wear and possible replacement
* The Freewheel spins well and appears to be in decent shape
* The Bottom Bracket will most likely need to be removed, inspected, cleaned and repacked
* One of the Brake Pads on the Rear Brake is a newer replacement - I believe it is a Kool Stop pad
* I have obtained a more appropriate Seat Binder Bolt with Nut and are included them in the bike box
* The Axle Nuts on the front hub were not correct / original and have been replaced with more appropriate Nuts
* One of the Huret Rear Hub Wing Nuts is bent slightly - See the photo of the Rear Derailleur
