I'm not really much of an expert on these motors (...yet :p)

But I do know my fair share of regular bicycles and my friend has that bike... I worry for the cheap plastic rims and really low quality brakes, the frame is decent and the handlebars are quite nice on the other hand.

You can try to sell it on craigslist for $X but be ready for emails back...

They put plastic rims on a bike?! Really?! I would think they are steel or aluminum... but I am no expert(lol)...

Did you mean that they are "soft" like plastic?

those stamped steel brakes are definitely kinda scary tho...

Still, I bet you could sell it for $300-350ish on the CL, but meeting strangers always freaks me out (I do live in Los Angeles)... Maybe meet in a police parking lot?

Best of luck!

Doi! Sorry, I meant plastic-feeling rims, wally world claims them as alloy but... alloy is not very specific at all.

I also wish you some luck OP! Although I see you still only have 1 post on this forum... =X
