About this product
This 1989 Terry Classic WSD Road Bike is an XX-Small 42cm women's-specific design, crafted from lugged steel. It features 700C wheels, a blue color, and a 24-speed Shimano derailleur system with bar-end shifters. Equipped with caliper side-pull brakes and a drop bar, this road bike also includes practical features like a rear bike rack and two bottle cages. Weighing 40 lbs, it's a vintage model designed for cafe commuting and longer road rides, manufactured in the United States.
Our take
The 1989 Terry Classic WSD is a charming vintage road bike, particularly appealing with its women's-specific design and XX-Small 42cm frame. The lugged steel construction ensures durability, though it contributes to the considerable 40 lb weight, which might be a factor for hill climbing. The 24-speed Shimano setup with bar-end shifters offers a good range of gears for varied terrain, a classic choice for road cycling of that era. Caliper brakes are functional but won't offer the sharp response of modern disc brakes. The included rear rack and two bottle cages are fantastic practical additions for commuting or touring, enhancing its utility despite its age.
