It’s amazing what some people consider a POS these days. I’m sure the majority of you would not consider Jeanette’s mid ’70s Sekine a POS by any stretch. Just for clarification, I have posted a few nice examples of some true POSs.
I wanted a little steel road bike to fix up, my old KHS aero turbo is getting bottom bracketitis…
This little dude (“Axel”) came from eBay, where I paid a little too much for a patriotic Canuck bike, and tooled around buying a few upgrade parts (cheap, functional vintage) painting and shining. Weighing in at 23lbs with snappy light 140psi ’70 tubulars, it’s a POS that’ll beat a lot of $100 POS’s
