I have decided to sell this faithful old favorite. This bike simply gets too little use and truly deserves better attention. I've had this one for around 8 years. Most parts have changed - several times.

This would be a nice restoration project. The paint is really worn, dulled and scraped in many spots - but still no rust. Never crashed and a very nice riding bike.

Full butted 531 frame & Fork... Nervex lugs.

I have set it up now as a complete and very smoothly functioning bike... ... really, intended for any eBay buyer to use basically just as is.

I'd sell it to any Listmember without the wheels if preferred - since I'd consider these lower caliber than the bike really deserves.

Currently has a nearly new Shimano 105 rear derailleur, but would be happy to substitute an early 70s Nuovo Record in VG - EXC condition if preferred (this would have been correct original).

Please view all the photos... and read the detailed description with all parts specifications

US buyers only $250 without wheelset. $300 complete with wheels ... PLUS actual shipping cost. Shipping via UPS.

(Ballpark figures for shipping cost WITHOUT wheels would be around $40 to Los Angeles... $62 to NYC ... and maybe $10 more with the wheelset - which would require a larger carton.)

Payment via PayPal, ... you can toss it on your credit card if you wish.

If interested, let me know before it hits eBay on Sunday.

Thanks! BOB HANSON, ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO, USA
