So you got that one? I emailed after he dropped the price but apparently I was too slow.
I have a 1983 but I think it's a 25". I've been looking for a 27" but I really want one with canti brakes and no luck yet. Did you also get the one in Ft. Collins about 6-12 months ago? Arghh!
Here's mine
It's in pieces now since the BB shell stripped out and I had the shell re-tapped to Italian threads but haven't put it back together again.
It came with the SuperbePro post, long cage RD, original erector-set rear rack, etc. If you're interested in any of that stuff maybe we can make a deal.
I'd really like to test-ride one of your 27" bikes and even try the longer cranks. I'll get in touch once I get my 83 'dale back together.
