Sold 1994 (?) Univega Boralyn Time Capsule Bike $625 Plus Shiping

So this what I told when I bought this hardly ridden bicycle: "this bike was bought by a rich Kansas state farmer, who reportedly owned thousands of acres, on the advice of his doctor after suffering from a heart attack. The guy rode it on his flat-ass roads around his corn fields for a few months in attempts to get healthy. One morning he rode up to one of his crew of men attempting to replace an auger drive on a huge JD combine harvester. The Univega was lying on the ground next to the John Deere and a heavy part fell off and cut through the spokes!" Amazingly it missed the rim or anything else important on the bike. The farmer tried to have the bike shop fix it under warranty as it was a practically new bike (he argued he paid over $2,000 it plus all the kit and it should be fixed for free). The shop refused due to the circumstances; the furious farmer placed in a barn never to be ridden again.

Anyway it is in stellar condition with storage wear mostly, some decal scratches, the front wheel spoke issue, front wheel still spins true with only a very minor deviance that should correct with replaced missing spokes. Light rust on chain, spokes, and chrome wheel releases.

Would look amazing with an executive detailing and servicing! The frame is flawless, not a scratch on the bottom bracket, just a tad little spot of chain slap at one area. As stated, some decal wear and scratches, scratched on out edges of Concept side grips. 18" frame. No pedals. $625 plus shipping, or can be picked-up in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
