Charming classic womens bike in suave ‘midnight blue’. Best for 5’1-5’7” riders. I restored this bike into a comfortable city cruiser that can be taken off-road. Raised handlebars ensure relaxed, upright riding posture. Indestructible and light cromoly steel frame, new 24-speed drivetrain, new modern derailleurs, shifters, and brakes. All terrain 26”x1.95” terrain tires.
This is Rachael’s bike now.
