That's funny, I just got a 52 Mexico that way myself. It was going to the dumpster along with a 56 Somec at an eviction liquidation if I didn't get em. Both too small for wife or I (well, the wife already has a 56 sport bike...hmm, it's not as pretty though...). I think I'll tidy them both up some then eBay them. That's my answer to the dilemma of "found sweet trashed bikes." Get em out to where they'll be appreciated. OK, I suppose there's the question of if it makes more sense to part em out before eBaying, but in the end I want to put my time into my bike book publishing. My part of the drama was only saving them from the trash. Let others carry the ball further. : ) --JP
