Eaton's Bike: "Lady Elite" - $40



True story: we found a guy putting this beautiful bike in the dumpster!
Of all the nerve. So we took it. Guy said this thing was old-lady ridden
until the old-lady couldn't ride it, and it ended up in the basement of
the condo building for the last 8 years or so. Just hangin' up,
collecting dust.

So we salvaged it on principle, and we're selling it at the (we think) reasonable price of $40 firm.

Levels of repair required:

JUST GET IT ON THE ROAD: new tubes.

RIDE
TO WORK: I'd put new tires on it, and even replace the wheels, because
those spokes are pretty old and the wrong bump is just going to cause
them to buckle, IMHO.

FANCY IT UP: Get some shiny fenders and a
new seat. Also, you can see that the fake-chrome on the seat post is
completely rusting away.

So, there it is folks. If we had more
space and inclination, it'd be a hell of a bike to fix-up. Shoot us an
email if interested.
