On Training Wheels
I'll start out by saying I'm not a bicycle expert and I'm new to the forum. I acquired this Varsity a few weeks ago. I knew it was old and the price was right. After getting it back to shop, I did some googling. I have no idea of the value. It's really cool, but not really my style.
It appears to be 100% original. The original tires hold air. The paint is really nice. It has the Sprint leather seat. The brake pads appear original and show little use. It even has the plastic cap on the end of the kickstand. It looks like it hung in a garage for 50 years. Doesn't look like any bolts have been turned since new. The only issues are two missing front spokes, dented front fender, a tear in the bar grips and some scuffs on the seat. The wheels, crank and pedals show some rust, but definitely could be cleaned up. Any input about this bike is greatly appreciated
