To those out there in CR land: I continue to drag out a number of 'finds' from the garage. My gal Sal has put her foot down regarding 'stagnant capital' and in order to appease SWIMO (she who I must obey), I have decided to clear even more gems from the archives!
So today I posted a Reynolds Ouzo Pro fork to Ebay. Item # 120230197103 Not really thinking that members of this group are interested, but maybe?
Other items that will be ebayed unless someone here wants to go first:
Melton Tandem frame (1979) (24x24). Ishiwata steel tandem tubing. Fillet lugless, by Mike Melton. Incredible workmanship, etc. 130 mm spacing. Frame has tandem concentrics, Mafac Cantilever bosses, water bottle, shifter, rack braze ons. Awesome ride. Has slightly extended seat tubes with recessed seat pin bolts done flawlessly (have I mentioned that before?). Make a good offer on this beautay. I will throw in the Campy Record (steel) headset.
I also have a set of wheels which are hard to find... Phil Wood 48 hole Tandem Hubs built to 27x1 1/8 clincher rims (Super Champion). (I have been using Specialized Aramdillo tires). Bolt on wheels with allen key bolts. Incredible tandem or serious Touring wheels. Built super true and tight. I have barely had to true these in many years (although they haven't gotten much use!). Need only $400 for these.
Campy SR alloy toe clips size M. ($30)
2 Silca Presta Pump Heads for floor pumps made of brass. ($?)
Campy steel Silca pump head. ($30)
Several pairs of 100% Wool tights with 'Rossin' logo embroidered on the side (New, size 4 and 5). I think these were made by Santini or Gianni. ($80 each)
Pair of Dura Ace Platform pedals (look great!) with rusty toe clips (don't look great!) ($80)
And one thing I am not selling, but wanted to let you all in on (!)....The very first Selle Italia Turbo saddle (red suede) brought to the U.S. (actually has the Avocet logo on the nose), and signed in gold felt pen by Eddy Merckx (who was pimping for Selle Italia at the time!) at the NY Cycle show in 1981!
If anyone is interested in any of this gear, please write me at dpcowboy54@yahoo.com. Thanks, Dean
