Vintage Shogun 100

Vintage Shogun 100
[sold]

Race across the landscape like a bullet train on this vintage Japanese single speed.

Its Tang double butted frame generates a solid, nimble ride, while newly taped bullhorn handlebars provide you with comfort and high performance on hills.

Born a 10-speed, this Shogun 100 has been freshly converted into a freewheeling single speed, lightened of all but its most essential Shimano parts. The 19-inch seat tube makes this ideal for riders 5'5" and up.

Whether you're a commuter, a student, or simply someone looking for an inexpensive bicycle that's not on a bike thief's top-10 list, this is for you.

$175 firm

For sale is a vintage French Motobecane bicycle. Carefully converted into a single-speed, this bike requires little maintenance, making it perfect for college students or commuters who want dependability without a high price tag.

Surface oxidation and wear to the blue paint reflect years of use to what has been a well-loved and often used bike (but effectively thwarts bike thieves on the lookout for luxury models).

$150

Seat tube length = 22"/23". Perfect for riders from 5'7" to 6'.
