[CR] FOR SALE - Rare Swiss Condor City Bike

Offered for sale to CR list members only,,,,,,,

As seen at the 2009 Cirque,,,,,

A rare Swiss Condor City Bike - estimated age is early 1960s - Reynolds "531" Double-Butted frame built with Nervex Pro Lugs (thin pencil seatstays!)  - Campagnolo Gran Sport Derailleurs with "Open C" downtube shift levers - undated Brooks Professional small rivet saddle - Campagnolo Record two-bolt seatpost - Weinmann Vainqueur "single spring" centerpull brakes - non-original wheelset (Campagnolo Tipo large flange hubs with Fiamme 27" clincher rims) - braze-on chainguard mounts, seatstay security wheel lock, left fork blade lamp/generator mount - non-original Bluemel fenders - German "BF" stem (GB copy) with flat alloy city bars.

Price is $795.00 plus shipping.

I am willing to reduce the price by $75.00 if you do not want the wheels and fenders (suspect it originally had Campagnolo Gran Sport hubs and Weinmann rims).

I rode this bike the first two days of Cirque, and it was truly a wonderful riding machine!  If you don't believe me, then ask for a second opinion from Dan Artley (we swapped machines for a short time on the Friday morning ride).

Please contact me offlist if you are interested, have questions, or would like additional photos.
