Gooie Morgen, In one of my posts from Belgium last year I told everyone if they were looking for deals the low countries were the place to be. If M and I weren't living on a student budget. in a sub-300 sqft apt I could have filled it with bikes and parts at prices that would have blown your minds. Most shops that have been around for 20+ years have a good bit of NOS and take-off parts laying around. In a society that lives on the bike they're more interested in having modern bikes than trying to keep the past alive. To most Belgians an old bike is just an old bike and not some window into past remembrances. best, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives missing Gent in Coeur d'Alene, ID.
