I just saw this on craigslist Greensboro and thought I would pass it along: http://greensboro.craigslist.org/bik/389454820.html The seller is unknown to me. And, I'm unknown to you. Although I did meet a few list members at this year's Cirque. I've been reading the list for several months. The list and level of expertise here is awesome. I have really enjoyed reading it. I am a '54 Holland made in North Carolina, USA. I like finding and bringing old bikes back to life. Wrenching is just as much fun as riding for me. I keep hoping to find a '70s Cinelli track bike in the dumpster, but I don't have any exotic bikes for now. I have an on-topic Schwinn and Raleigh that are my main rides. I also have an on_topic '75 Del Romi that I can't find information on. If anyone knows about a Del Romi labeled Made in West Germany I would like to hear it. And, while I'm asking for free information I would like to know who decided the down tube closest to the back of the front tire would be a good place to mount an open mechanical shifter. I have a theory that it is the same guy that decided the exhaust of a tractor should be pointed straight up in front of the driver. Just wanted to make sure the right people saw the water bottle, Dave Holland Greensboro, North Carolina, USA
