I have an old 1980's Huffy road bike. Weighs alot for a road bike and has drop handlebars with "foamish" grips that look bad. Brakes need a tune-up and one of the tires is shot. What can I do to make it "cool" again? I got it for $20. I have a neighbor who can probably fix the brakes. How much would all of this cost? What should I do with the foam grip? Can I take it off and put in colored tape? I want it too look good on the road without spending more than $100. How much would a paint job be for this kind of bike? Please help me with any of those questions. Thanks.
How much can I get for 2 new tires?
