This isn't a new find, but I haven't put it up here. I picked it up for a whopping $30. The guy said it was a family bike that was stored in the camper for when they went camping in the mountains. Other than that, it didn't see much use.

It's got a Sach Torpedo 2 speed automatic hub in the rear. 24" wheels with 24x1 3/8" tires with aluminum fenders (which use the rack for a rear mount). It also has a fully enclosed (except the bottom underneath) chainguard. The bike rides great and just needs some slight tightening to the rear axle cones to cut some slop out of it.

Still trying to figure out what to do with it. Most likely just clean it up, repaint it and run with it. Anyone done anything interesting with this style of folding bikes?
