I thought I had this bike sold, but the sale fell though. So I am offering it to the list.

A friend bought this Jack Taylor touring bike in approx. 1973, and rode it extensively through 1976 or 77. Then the bike was parked and was not ridden much since then.

It has a light green frame (non-metallic) with the Mondrian style decals, though mostly worn off. It seems straight and complete. Size is seat tube 57c-c and top tube 59c-c. It is set up with 3T Record stem and bars, Weinmann Vainquer brakes, Stronglight 93 crankset, Campagnolo NR front and rear derailleurs (pat. 73) with SunTour bar end shifters, Campagnolo pedals and a Pletscher (Swiss) rear rack. Saddle was changed at some point to a Vetta gel, but the owner remembers the original being a Brooks, which is missing. Rims are tubulars but I can't see what make. Needs tires. Photos on request. $500 plus shipping.
