Howdy,
I
forget which model this fella is, its just OK tubing (reynolds 501)
but it rides nicely, and was a pain free 650b conversion. This fall
it will be getting fender and rack braze-ons, internal top tube
cable routing, and a handmade front mech. Until then, its sort of
my fair weather fastish long distance bike. It can do pretty rough
stuff too, I have taken it seriously off road in rothrock state
park, which is known for being pretty nasty.
Anyway,
it has some interesting (to me at least) parts.
Here's
the breakdown:
-SR Stem, salvaged
-GB Bars, god knows how old. Great up sweep, narrow, loads of hand
positions. The drops have a very nice long flat part for your hands.
-Shimano Bar cons
-Mafac Levers
-Cinelli Tape
-Ultegra Headset
-Mafac Front Hanger
-Mafac Racers Brakes
-TA Zephyr 46 34 cranks, Sugino Rings
-Topeak Cages
-B-17
-AM classic post
-Velocity/xl-14/105/nexus wheelset
-Nifty Swifty tires
-TA front rack with custom (i know its mounted upside down!) B and
M front headlight bracket.
-Paul rear mech
-Ostrich Bar bag.
