Subject: [CR]German Bauer Track Bike Late 50's

I have an exceptional Bauer "Made in Western Germany" track bike that is from the late 50's, or early 60's, I believe.

It has Nervex Pro lugs, and Reynolds 531 tubes, FB large flange hubs and super-light Scheeren wood filled Weltmeister rims. The crank is Campy 151 mm BCD with 1/2" pitch ring, the pedals are Campy chrome steel pista, the bars and stem are beautiful Belgian Titan- alloy pista bars and chrome steel pista stem dated 1959. The seatpost is Campy and the saddle is the plastic Unica Nitor. It says Unica on one side and Nitor on the other side. The headset is Stronglight Competition. It looks as though the seat tube has a very relaxed angle, but I haven't measured it.
