I've been told this bike has the ability to transport its rider through time. According to the old man who sold it to me a few years ago, this bike enabled him to ride into 1992, wherein he promptly purchased some New Coke and admired the unobstructed views from Sugarloaf mountain. Unfortunately, I could never figure out the bike's time travelling magical abilities. Whenever I rode it, I travelled only forwards in time at the regular pace. It was rather underwhelming. Whatever your time travelling needs, this is a reasonably nice bike. It has new brake cables, new rear derailer, re-built bottom bracket, etcetera.
