Nice drop-tube cruiser in good mechanical condition. I take pride in the bicycles I own and work on. Everything is clean and well oiled. This bicycle can be ridden anywhere you wish to go.

Located in Uijeongbu, but can be delivered to any Seoul area subway station for a small fee.

The Good:
� New front brake caliper and pads.
� New chrome kickstand.
� Good tires.

The not so Perfect:
� A small bit of rust on the bottom fender edges.
� A few paint nicks on the seat tube.

90,000 KRW o.b.o.

It looks nice! I'm just wondering about the reason that you're selling it?
Does it have back brakes?

Thanks.

This bicycle has a rear drum brake. You can see the silver painted drum housing on the left (non-drive) side of the bicycle.

As for why I'm selling it: I'm a bicycle nut. I love working on and fixing up bicycles, and I am occasionally given the opportunity to rescue a used bicycle. I put in a quite a bit of time and effort to make sure they are running well again, and if none of my friends are interested, I offer them up for sale. I enjoy cleaning, repairing, and adjusting bicycles--kinda like therapy, I guess. Very Happy The bike for sale in this thread works perfectly, and I have no doubt that it could take on years of pedaling duties.

I also currently have a Trek 820 mtb that I'm working on if someone would be interested in that.

It looks kind of small. Would it fit a 6' person?

26"x1.5 wheels are the standard (well mostly) for Korean bicycles. That said, it would probably be too small for 6' person. Also, you have to realize that most people in Korea ride bicycles with their knees jammed into their ribcage. I'm 5'10" and I fit on it ok. I do have an extended seat post lying around that could allow it to fit a 6' person...

Would it be to big for a 5'4" woman?

A 5'4" woman would definitely fit withing the adjustability of this bicycle.

I'd say anything from 5' to 5'8" would be quite comfortable with the bicycle's current setup. As with all bicycles, the seatpost and handlebar stem can be easily raised and lowered to fit the rider's needs.
