I had my eye on this on eBay for the wheels mainly but any parts that I could use for another Viscount project I was working on (more of that later).
I realised that women's bikes went for much less than men's even if they were essentially the same bike.
The pictures weren't good on Ebay and I took a gamble.
Well, as soon as I got it home my wife took one look at it and that was it....I had to start my parts search all over. She has it and is loving it but wants me to put flat handle bars on it.
I rode it a few times to check for road-worthness
and it is a truly classic ride. It is so stable and sweet. I would trust this bike with my life (and my wife). It handles very well and makes you feel very confident that whatever you do, is going to happen (if you get my meaning?)
All the same components as the men's Sebring of the same era.
Anyway, enjoy the pictures (not the greatest, as I took them indoors in December, as soon as I got it indoors before I cleaned it etc)
