A 81 year old gent was selling his bike. He cannot ride anymore and he may have been decluttering before he sold his house. Paid $65 for it. It us a Made in Canada Super Cycle. Hi tensil steel. Not sure what year though. Has a Dutch seat on it, 6 speed Shimano, fenders, carrier etc. I suspect it is made by Raleigh and branded Super Cycle by a chain called Canadian Tire.

When you pay $50 for a couple of beer and a couple of steak sandwiches, this seems a small price to pay for a vintage bike.
if it were not for all the cheap or low cost bike coming in from China, these vintage bikes wouldn't even be around for purchase.
