Bike nerds, what's a reasonable price to pay for a clapped, shitty, functional beach cruiser these days? Like, an absolute blemish eyesore that is mechanically functional. I have no mental yardstick for this and I think I am now old enough that "what a bike costs" has an anchor in 1990s dollars which is, you know, like 30 years out of date now.
If I try and ask Google I'll get a Gemini slop answer
