No really...I think it is not possible to understand it from the photos. The rims are a piece of rust, same thing for the cranks and chain. The brakes don't work (outer cables are dried and cracked, levers are broken). The rest (gears and derailleur) had to be taken off...so no, it was not usable with a 'lube' !! And I am not spending a lot of money on it....I planned to buy the cheapest things ever (cheapest things I found on internet).
But what paint job would you suggest then? I still have to buy the paint so...suggest something nice? Again maybe from the photo it is not easy to understand, but the frame also was very rusty and not in good conditions.
