Searching for a starting point for my new project at a local car boot yesterday and I fond a nice peaugeot that looked a fair bet untill I looked closer. Ok it needed tyres and tubes, maybe cables,a saddle and a good "fettle" but sadly the frame was seriously rusted around the BB [and I do mean seriously]. I just wondered why let it get to such a state ? Did he live in a canal, did he have so much cash he could afford to let what had been several hundred quid's worth of bike just rust away ?
Just seems such a waste to me, a fair quality [ not the best I admit but still ok] bike just left to die. At one time it was worth a good price as a winter bike or as a project, now with all the work needed plus the iffy frame it was really only scrap. Sad.
