While driving my bus in Manhattan crossing Park Ave I spot this leaning up against the city trash can.. Two flat tires and nobody around. A definate abandonment..I was stoked to finally own one and for free.. Can you believe it has never been ridden? the tires (Classic Knobbies ??) still have the extra rubber hanging off the thread.

Nothing like a bike that has never known love :mrgreen: Nice find and congrats!
 
Thanks Jeff! Now all I need to do is to figure out how to get Steve over here to help me "OCD" clean it.. lol
 
An added plus of being a bus driver. You can load up on finds while you work!

That looks like paint overspray from a shop, like the bike was against the wall and got forgotten.
 
I will look into checking to see if it is stolen or not.. and what you see is layers of dust from being in storage.. The bike doesnt have a scratch as far as I can see..

Wow...a free Electra.

Doesn't get much better than that.

Stock up on Simple Green. :wink:

Amen. :mrgreen: And I love Simple Green! Is there any thing it can't do..?
