1978 Fuji SJ-10 - I have questions

[moderncyclista]

Well, crap.

I did spend a bit of money on getting it road-ready and now I'm regretting it. I suppose it wasn't even worth that. It's rideable though. It's charming and fun. But it rains a lot here and I commute a heavy-duty way. It doesn't have a lot of gears, but short rides are fun. Now I'm freaked about pinching my hands in the brake-levers, though. *meep*

Sometimes a gift isn't a gift, I guess. I was really grateful awhile ago. *sigh* *forehead rub* I should've just politely declined (how do you do that with a gift, anyways?) and saved up for another bike. Man, regret sucks. Oh, well.

(Also, changing the bars wasn't expensive. It cost me 10 bucks for the bars and 15 to re-wrap to save the tape I had just put on. At least it's more comfortable to ride. I did end up paying for tubes and tires though. Ugh.)
