I'll have to admit that I used a Pletcher rack for a couple years on my PX-10 back in the day. It was my first good bike and there really weren't a lot of choices available within biking distance at the time. Lots of electrical tape to cushion the tubes and that little T shaped bracket to keep it from slipping. They were in good shape when removed. ... Now who in the He** would want the dead weight of a kick stand!!!???

http://ebay.com/<blah>

wow, the bike is all original, with good paint, and the auction includes MANY extras including just about every tool you would buy to maintain this bike in ~1970 (i.e. stronglight pullers, campag cone wrenches, t-wrench, 3rd hand, cyclo chain tool, even 'Richard's Bicycle Book' (a good 70's book), and the 'Clear Creek Bicycle Book' to get you in that 70's mood ...)

Bike has 27" clinchers and Lyotard 45 pedals, perhaps a touring version of the PX-10 ?? Or maybe not completely original, i'm no PX-10 expert.

Shipping is a semi-reasonable $60 for an iSoldIt type of place ...
