Bike stuff

I think I'm going to use the bike we salvaged for cliff to teach myself about bike repair. The crankset is in decent repair, and is sugino, so I should only have to clean that up. Brakes, cables, derailleur are probably all going to need replacement. Wheels are good, tires are original (this is an 80's schwinn world sport, so that's not so good

You're the second person on my friends list today (and ever) to post about a first experience repairing a salvaged bike. Maybe it's a sign of the season.

Good luck fixin' 'er up. If you go with a funky paint job don't forget to post pics!

He's actually been riding the bike as-is, we put a new seat on and cleaned and lubed it. But I'm thinking that it'd be worth doing some real work on.
