I've decided to keep the bike and try to ride it more... at least for now. Going to buy a battery, change the fluids, and attempt to get rid of the squeaky front brake! Need to get some tires as well, even though they are still like new, they are now 15 years old. What would be a good tire choice? Probably 50/50 pavement and dirt roads. Anything else you all think I should do as maintenance before riding?

Thank you. Jeff

A guy on here 2LZ talks about how good Shinko 50 50 tires are?

Thanks guys. That brake squeak is pretty annoying, so I'm happy there is a fix.

Once the kids get old enough, it'll make a good learner bike (low power).
