Girls bikes have multiple tubes for strength. This is as you say probably cut which leaves more prone to crack.

There is a bad accident just waiting to happen. Pity the poor soul who buys/rides that thing.
You can actually see the front stub of the top tube where it was cut at the head tube. :(

I agree with 2door, this is going to hurt whoever is on it when (not if) it breaks...
Even worse than the one brought to me for repair with the hole in the frame tube.
*rolls eyes*
Some people should not be allowed to own tools.

whats pathetic is that it doesnt appear to have been in the way of anything really.

35-40 mph? My first guess was that the frame would crack at 15mph or the tank would fall off at 20. That thing looks terrifying. Hopefully the police will see this as unsafe and pull it over before the owner ends up face down in the road. Bonus! No helmet law in MI!

When I saw that, I closed my eyes and turned the page........very scary.

Might as well chop one of the front fork legs off and pretend it's a Cannondale :D

Looks like someone lacking in mechanical skills took you a little too literally there Scotto!

"if it doesn't fit, make it fit!"

Every time I look at that ad my dental work hurts!
