Went and picked up some newer bikes today to fix and flip.
heres how the conversation went
Woman: here let me move this trash bike out of your way so you can get to the other bikes
Me: trash bike? (it was dark out) whats wrong with it that its a trash bike?
Woman: the front forks crushed
Me: Ill still take it
Woman: it aint worth anything
Me: you would be surprised what is useable on a bike like that
Woman: ok
Heres the thing it was a girls 10 speed and I had no clue what Id use the parts for but I took it for parts anyways I figured nothing else the pedals, cables and bearings was good if nothing else.
So I threw them in my truck and when I got home I unloaded my finds from the trip and I thought what can I save off this piece of crap then I realized it had one part id been waiting to find to complete my Huffy Scout 10 speed I picked up a few weeks ago.
