Vintage Bicycle Pictures

I have a road bike, I bought Positron Open a garage sale for $ 7 a month ago. It was great for gravel roads and a trail, but I'm looking for a road bike with several speeds back to school with me so I'm looking to sell it. It is in a decent state, it needs a few touch up which I could do myself. All information is on this bike and how it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a link with some photos:

Wow ... thats a name I have not heard in a looooong time.

The brand name is not Positron is the model. The bike was made by Murray for Sears-brand their Open Road which, coupled with models Free Spirit. Positron Shimanos first attempt was indexed moving .. instead of the handle makes indexing, the rear derailleur has notched ball bearings that do not always work very well. Big plastic knobs on fat is to take the force required to click on each apparatus in place.

Anyway, as far as the bike was experimental at best, and that the experiment has failed there may be someone there who could want for the sake of posterity, but I doubt it.

This is probably not the answer you want, but you've paid almost as much as it is worth. Once the drive starts to fail the entire system must be replaced, and that technology is still on the bike is almost over, and he'll end up as fodder Junkyard.

So either keep it as a bad weather bike, it gives the charity a tax write-off of $ 20, or put it in your own garage sale, uh, $ 7.

For me, it makes a very nice bike. The paint is not chipped, and if you find the right buyer, you get a hell of a lot more than you paid for it. This is not a top model, as indicated by the cranks in one piece, but it's the kind of thing that people are interested in. If I lived in America and have a daughter I would buy it myself. Consider selling it on craigslist
