Left to my own devices I'd blather on about this bike long enough to fill a small book. I've had it since '79, built it up from a bare frame without forks that fall, rode it in a metric double without a front deraileur in the fall of '80, fixed it up with nicer gear, rode it in the Davis Double Century that spring. In '83 a friend brazed on cantilever brakes and a few other tidbits and painted it for me. Since then I've replaced almost everything on it except the triple front cranks.
Note the campy dropouts, the inline brake handles, the routing for the front brake cable, and my solution for the missing quirky legnano seat post bolt. The last time I was just going to retire the poor tired machine, I sold a used bike on consignment and was paid with suspension forks for my Soma, and a set of wheels and a few other things to get her back on the road one more time. She's a total mongrel, weighs something like 27 lbs but has a really nice geometry that just makes her a joy to ride. http://www.flickriver.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157623085248314/ -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
