I've gotten plenty of decent used bikes for peanuts or free because people often think of me when they're cleaning out their garages.
But my attempt at "thrifty cycling" was a few years ago when somebody gave me a Schwinn Traveler III in my size. I pumped up the tires and lubed the chain, and it was ready to go. Nothing fancy about it, but it was decently comfortable and the ride quality was ok. I decided to see how much I could get out if it for as little $$$ as possible. That lasted about a week, until I found someone to give me $100 for it. Then I went back to the Atlantis or Stumpjumper. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
