Hello all,

After a bit of a hiatus, it is good to be back with the group. I recently picked up a nice Urago, gentleman said he purchased it new in the late fifties. It is 52cm, green with almost pristine paint and decals. Equipment is stronglight model 57's, simplex rod front der, original (I think) grand record rear der, three piece campy hubs with tied and soldered spokes, brooks b-15 saddle, pivo stem and bars, universal model 61 brakes with non cracked hoods. All and all a great bike. Oh, durifort tubing. Can anyone tell me some more about this bike and the worth? I have always wanted such a bike and was glad to find it local.
