They were free....why complain?
Got the blueone sunday, in some big block sale. Missed out on 2 bikes because i was so broke. One was some 26" diamondback mountain bike and the other some trike with a drum brake...i could have so bought it if my money order was cashed.
It was at the sale, and came back when they were closing to see if i could snatch the trike, it was gone...and the blue bike was in the trash...took it

Re: 20" of scrap metal

The blue bars on the Roadmaster are pretty cool, I'm sure you'll find a use for those... And the bell of course. :D
 
Re: 20" of scrap metal

What i plan to use/keep, since i could never resell these things:
The grips on both
The bars on the blue
the necks on both
all bearings
All tires
Both forks
spokes/nipples/hubs off the blue
Wheels off the red
Crank setups off both

Reflectors

i dont know WHAT they were trying to do here...
 
The Fat Boy is probably worth $100-150, and it looks pretty clean. Terrible looking frame though, looks like it weighs a ton... I can't tell a valuable Mongoose from the K-mart variety, but I'm guessing this one is from the latter category :(
 
my lbs were selling those specialized cranks brand new back in the day for $20.
they are just so dang heavy. other then that its still a pretty nice bike. good score.
