well when i was out n about doing my wheeling and dealings i found a very nice close to mint ladies free spirit 3 speed at my lbs.
he said make him an offer i offered 30 he said we are not too far off and we settled on 40 as it is.
i know the front tire has a leak but otherwise the bike rides good and does not look bad but it has it's quirks as would any 1981 bicycle that has not been serviced for awhile.
i had a couple questions about it though
fist off was it called a brittany or was there any particular name for these?
secondly the rear rack is cool and kinda different did these come with them standard or was it an option? i have found acouple of the same bikes and they all seem to have his rack on them.so i assume it was either a popular option or it wass tock with the bike.
thirdly there isa bracket right above the rack that looks like it might hold another rack or something any ideas what this may have had?
this is not mine but mine is identical except the front basket
what sold me was the 3 speed coaster rbake that does work i been wanting one of these wheels for a very long time and now that i got it i don't wanna tear the bike apart just for the wheels.
