The bike has hardly been ridden at all, maybe three times. Not even 20km covered, if at all. I had to pull the shifter up a bit on the handlebars; you can do that, the metal is bare there, but it is hardly noticeable and does not represent any impairment. Since I won't be riding it anymore, I think it's a shame if it just sits in the basement. It is a men's bike, 28" frame, so something for tall men. Otherwise, the bike is like new.
