I usually keep a small fleet of "disposable" bike around - i.e. bikes to be ridden to a location and then abandoned. Always the shittier breed of department store MTBs
example:
yeah it was a total budget build - I have about $30 total invested right now (frame / fork and some other stuff was $10 at a garage sale) I may bartape it and put on road levers
Just got finished building this one - I have a smaller freewheel and a suntour superbe short cage derailleur for it. Still undecided about the pink cranks (they are old and not ugly unlike the new "fixie" anno cranks...)
edit: also got a black corduroy concor esk saddle for it
