The Free Spirit 10-speed with 24 in. wheels is just like our 27 in. version. All we did was cut it down to size. It’s a bicycle built for you.
And a bicycle built for speed.
The Free Spirit 10-speed. When you have one, you’ll always have somewhere to go.
Available at Sears, Roebuck and Co. retail stores. Or through the Catalog.
So many people want a Free Spirit, we temporarily may not have the model you want.
But then the Free Spirit is a bike worth waiting for.
