This bike I have had for 9 years. It is in working order and as far as I know is bone stock! I know how old it is but I know knothing about huffy cactus roses. This bike and I go far back. In 2002 my dad and I went to a bike sale. I looked right at this cactus rose and it was love at first sight. I loved the bike so much that the guy who was selling them actualy gave me it for FREE.
Great little bikes! They didn't get the fame that Schwinns did but in my oppinion were just as good. Huffy made them under several names from Cactus Rose to Pink Princess. Earlier ones had metal fenders and the plastic finders started in the mid to late 70s. I used a huffy frame to build a custom bike for my daughter about 10 years ago because the are easier to find than schwinn. How ever there getting harder to find and I'm sure the value will continue to grow with time. You have a great bike there. Don't leave it outside or the fenders will get brittle and break
Thanks.
My dad got me this bike for me when I was in 1st grade and I have loved it every since
