It's like walking into the middle of an argument between eight horny drunks.
So I have just come across a 1986 Ross Mt. Hood locally. She just want's $30 for it but it looks like the roller cam brakes were swapped with modern BMX U-Brakes. The saddle will need to go. I have a Brooks so no big deal. I can't tell from the pictures what else was swapped so I'm on the fence. How much do I want this?
