cool old bike for sale

[sorry for the crass commercialism,
but the orphans wanted to give it a try ]

how it measures up: ~21" seat tube, standover height ~30"
...

this is a very sweet, old "statesman" single speed, with a coaster brake. complete with fenders, chainguard, handlebars and grips. what's the significance of this? NO cable guides. very clean frame, long rear dropouts, this is a perfect city cruiser, with wonderful potential for a fixed gear conversion. comes with 26" wheels, with plenty of room for 700c wheels, or even cross/knobbies. has a removable kickstand, but i kind of like it.

$25.00, and no one gets hurt.
