Currently set up fixed gear. Install a freewheel to the other side of rear hub for easy conversion. If you would like this or any other modification to the bike, please message me.
This bike rides as well as it looks- smooth, stable and quiet. Like a new bike should.
Please keep in mind this frame is almost 50 years old and retains desirable original paint and logos. Therefore, it has scratches, scrapes, and chips you would expect for something this age and contribute to the vintage character. The rest of the bike, however, is new.
Bike will be partially disassembled for shipping to you.
No pedals included
