Bigwoo,

I found this old thread lying around as I am trying to find information on a Team LeMond that I just purchased at a yard sale.

It is a lugged frame painted brilliant yellow and has a black head tube with a Greg LeMond sticker.

I think that it is 87'-90', but cannot be certain. It says it is made in Italy.

It is full Campy throughout, and is in very good condition, save a few spots of rust that seem to be from a less than great original paint job.

I rode it a little before I started taking it apart for a complete clean up. I can post photos if anyone is interested.

If anyone knows what this is I would love it if you could educate me.

Thanks.

In the back of my mind I also believe that there may be some people who feel "cheated" because they worked hard and trained to ride the tour in an honest manner, and they and their records were blown out of the water by people who may have had access to unfair techniques....

With all of the wonderful collections we have on C&V, I'm very surprised that nobody has posted an 80's LeMond.....
During spring & summer I see a guy on Pearl St in Boulder who has one of the very first lugged LeMond's that was ever made and it is autographed by Greg on the rear L stay..... I met him a year ago outside of Nick & Willy's Pizza and he complimented my vintage Serotta and I complimented his LeMond.... I will try to find him and get some photos of it and post back to this thread...
