Why are you riding a 24 anyway?

Get a 20 inch or get out.

That bike is one of two things: Stolen or a Scam. If you can somehow prove its neither then buy that shit asap cause the frame alone is worth, or at least was worth, way more than 500 bucks at least in canada.

If you put a break on that bike i will slap you across your internet butt, if it can be proven not to be stolen i would get it in a second jut learn how to ride breakless it is quite fun esp if you're just campus cruising and some DJs
