Hi Tom,

I've got a complete Shimano 600 Arabesque group -- good to excellent condition -- I'd sell for $80 plus shipping. It includes a 170mm crankset with 52/40 chainrings.

The complete set has:

Crankset 170mm with 52/40 chainrings rear derailleur front derailleur brake levers ("drilled" style -- no hoods) brake calipers (some rust that could be cleaned and one non-original cable clamp nut) downtube shift levers

Best Regards,

David

Original rings a plus, and 172.5 or 175 mm arms would be magnificent, but no rings and 170mm are good too. Reasonable price and functionality are more important than flawless finish. Thanks for looking.
