"This looks to be closer to 1980 than 1970 BOB FREITAS MILL VALLEY, CA USA Similar frameset sold on ebay recently for fraction of current bid"

The same week that frameset was on, this 1981 complete bike was on as well. It went for only $200 more than the frameset! I'd been looking for one of these in my size for years.

I'm just finishing up the rebuild so figured this would be a good time to show it off. I still need to tie & solder the rear spokes as I had to rebuild the one wheel. Thought I should put a few miles on it first. Here's some quick pics.
