The above image was taken after the purchase, as well as removing some of the extras the previous owner (middle aged asian women) put on, including a rear fender, safety lights on the handlebar and seat tube, and kick stand.
I found the bike on craigslist. She was asking for $250. After telling her how it worked, but was in bad shape, I was able to bring her down to $150 after trying to get her down to $125.
