Look Ma, No Hands!
Hi everyone,
I saw this National bicycle at the local antique store in my hometown of Bay City, MI (where Nationals were made). I know very little about them, but I've always been intrigued by them since I like bikes and they were built here. They're asking $1500 for it, which seems like, well, more than I'd spend on a bicycle anyway, but just for my own education, can anyone point out what's wrong with it? A century is a long time for parts to be replaced, etc. I'm sorry the pictures are kind of bad, but they have it mounted way up on a display case.
Thanks!
Aaron
