I just picked up an old Trek 800 for $30.00 at a garage sale. The tires hold air, the brakes work well, grip shifters work fine and the seat post is not seized! Old bikes typically have lots of issues and a free bike quickly turns into a money pit. This one fits and I will keep it for a while.
That's a great find. Yes, free bikes can be very expensive but sometimes we get lucky. This one wasn't in great shape but fortunately I had some spare parts that worked.
