As far as keeping purists away from the sale, some purists would know that for $10 extra you could get that bike from Carlsbad with top tube braze on cable guides and for a little more money you could get other brazed on guides and bottle bosses, if the original catalogs and brochures can be believed..
I am wondering if Bob Hovey can see from these photos if they are the originals or not?
