Nice. Even has a decent set of whitewalls. Knowing most thrift stores around here you probably got it for next to nothing too.

I've finally worked my way up to 3 speeds , 7 would be awesome :mrgreen:

I love my Nexus 7 speed. Your wife will too. You need a really small chain ring if you want to get the most out of the low gears. If you ride on flat ground you can use a 46T and have lots of top end. Gary

Ask her "is the color OK dear?"

As the saying goes....if mama's happy, everyone is happy....

Nice find!! I once bought an inexpensive men's Retroglide, just to get the NX7 hub. These are bikes to watch for.
