What size are the wheels on that one? I saw it on FB Marketplace fro sale. Looked kind of cool. What are you planning on doing with it?

Detailing it like usual... and then putting it up for sale. Wheels are 26''.

I keep a lot of bikes, but I let a lot go. Just like making them look good and useful again. Besides, this frame is too small for me. Are you interested in it?

Hmmm... anyone interested in this? I've taken on to many bikes and might let this one go. But it has to be Picked Up!
