i got to ride one of these today, batavus champion (not my pic) from the late 70s. my friends father's bike, only took it to the corner store but it was neat. i know this bike sat outside for at least 2 years and he recently tuned it up, new tires, chain and stuff, but it felt so smooth. its making me think about looking for something old and simple. is it hard to find replacement parts for stuff this old? almost every time i see someone wanting to restore a bike all the comments say its not worth it, but i know in this instance he spent very little to fix it up and it rides really nice
