Another project completed to rideable state, early 1970s Raleigh Professional. Not all C&V correct, but I like it. Drivetrain came from my now-retired 1979 Trek 930. I did not ride it on the road yet (still sick today), but it is ready to go for tomorrow if I feel better. If it works out, I have a clamp-on water bottle cage and a handlebar bag to add to it.

Miyata Ridgerunner SE, converted to 27" wheels, fixed gear, drop bars, just added the fenders and rack. Thinking of adding a chainguard, a bell and chainstay guard as well....

Haha, I had that fear while I snapped a few shots. It even played out in my head and I briefly imagined how I would lunge for the bike before it fell or how I would jump in the water if it did fall. I prop my bike up pretty often like that though, so I wasn't overly worried.

1979 Centurion Semi-Pro, by way of cb400bill, who kept it in this condition, even while riding it often.
Tange frame w/chrome as seen. Suntour Cyclone FD/RD. Suntour shifters, 2x5 rear.
GranCompe calipers and levers w/Kool-Stops. Cinelli 65-40 bars on a Cinelli stem.
Miche seatpost, still have the original. Blue B-17, KMC nickel chain. SR crankset 52/42.
MKS Sylvan pedals, Christophe clips, and Lapize straps, Elite Ciussi cage.
Sunshine hubs on anodized Araya 27's, the tires are Schwinn Super Record.
Bikedued sold me some Puma touring shoes, and it's been fun to have.
I'll have to put the saddle on another bike to break it in, I'm not riding this that much.
I have promised Bill I'd do at least a century on it from time to time.

I love the Zullo, and the way you have it set up.

Robbie got to it before me, he's right.
It's not exactly a performance enhancing drink. Thanks for the kind words.
