Ha! Loved it. My Dad had one of those JPC bikes. Hung in the rafters for 
years until my friends and I transitioned from our BMX phase to our Road 
bike phase. It didn't take long after getting our first 10 speed to 
discover his old bike was a _real_ racing machine. It had down-tube 
shifters, 12 speeds, toe clips, quick releases, and I think contrary to the 
film no (or maybe one) brake lever extension.

All it needed was to get rid of that horrible disk brake. That thing must 
have weighed 5 lbs.

It took a couple more summers before we realized it was no racing machine. 
We turned on it like a lover betrayed.
