Not being flippant. Seriously. If this were a car it would be a 1970's Pinto with a rag stuffed in the gas tank, no brakes, bald tires and a bucket in place of a seat.
Really? Do provide your sources and facts for "death trap" comment please. Isn't that a bit overkill?
I know that it's a piece of junk... but please justify the death trap comment. Plenty of people use POS bikes for errands, commuters, spare bikes and most importantly, when they can't afford something "nice".
Hundreds of low income people can't be wrong, can they?
