I'm worried the kid has never ridden on pizza cutters, he used to mountain bikes. His buddies love riding and he went a few times, but can't keep up with a bike that only pedals in 4th gear.
I told him take all 4 to a shop and get an estimate to get them running: tubes, tires, derailer/brake adjustments, some LOObrication.

I wouldn't spend more than $50 really. Depending on model and condition though.
