I have my parents’ “matched his&hers” Centurion racing bikes that I feel would be a shame to just throw in a dumpster, but I’ve no idea how to find people who would appreciate them.
So my primary question here is: d’you think these are at all worth keeping? I’m not interested in cash, merely avoiding waste.
Secondary, how do I find a community? Is this it?
They’re Centurion bikes, with a sticker near the crank saying “Infinity cr-mo double tapered butted tubing”. Silly me took the pic from the wrong side, sorry - Front and rear derailleurs are stamped “Suntour Cyclone 7000”, it’s a 2*6 arrangement. The levers are on the frame and go clicky-click when shifting.
centurions are excellent bikes! suntour cyclones are some of the best from the era! what area are you in? id pick one up. otherwise, donate them to a nearby bike org, offer them free on fb marketplace (or another similar service), or sell them to a bike shop for whatever they’ll pay
Good to know! I’m in tiny little Denmark though.
Ah, a fellow european 👀 if you live near an university campus, they often have self-organized bike workshops. I bet you they‘d gladly take them as a donation.
