Free or trade womens bike.

I upgraded the wife to a Marin B-17. So if anyone wants/needs a bike for their significant female i've got one.
Its a 13 year old iron horse. works great and looks great since the wife hardly rode it. It does need some parts. Needs tubes and tires. The front derailler shifter is broken. Its a gripshift. so the bike is always in the smallest ring.
its a cheeser/pleaser but it'll get the job done.
looks kinda like this.

WHat size and where do you live? The wife is 5'2, so will be needing a small and dont have a bike for her yet. Very interested if the size is right.

Its a 21 speed. Size med. My wife is 5'4" and fits fine.

It has gripshift shifters, bottom pull shimano frt dllr, shimano sis rear dllr. 1 inch head tube, ridged fork, generic saddle(probably want a new one, and if i still have an extra saddle i'll throw it in), and the color is kinda turquoise.

i'm in RSM/backside of mission viejo. i work in lake forest right off the 5/lake forest exit.

let me know if you need my number.

Sounds good. I am off work on Friday, back at work on Saturday. Either Friday night or Sunday afternoon would be best for me. Let me know. I appreciate your generous offer. Is there anything you are in need of? I have some misc. bike stuff, but not a ton.
