They've been hanging in the garage ever since, almost 20 years! They are great bikes and easy to refurb. Mine just needed a new front inner tube.

Looks like somebody just stored it from the first day of purchase. This bike rides better than my high end racers. I would love to know the size of the seatpost down tube I.D. so I can get a setback for my legs. If you can post this, I would appreciate it very much. The tube's inside diameter seems like 1"inch but I am not sure. Whatever it is, it is a rare size.

Hopefully my project works out as well. I was looking up where to get a rigid front fork and ended up here.
