    Bought a bike at the pawn shop yesterday. Front wheel bent, one grip torn up,
    one pedal broken.

    Looks new, still has flashing on the tires. 2010 model.

    Huffy Savannah. $10! It is called a commuter bike?
    Has 700c wheels.

    Had the wheel trued, $15, grips, $6, pedals, $10!

    Got it all together, adjusted the shifter, Shimano, 18 speed.
    Adjusted the brakes, the pads were way off, one even touched the tire!
    Oiled the chain and cables. Had a flat on my first ride, less than a block!:p

    Did about five miles this afternoon, no speedo, rides nice, no problems I can
    see. The spring seat post is different?? Take some getting used to.

    I am in it for $41.

    Mine is black and doesn't have the rack.
