I bought it off of Craigslist here in Toronto form a fellow named Pierre who regularly sells there. He bought it cheap off of the original owner, and was looking for $800 for it. I was totally broke and offered him $600, which he very nicely let me pay in two installments [I]after[I] giving me the bike! I have bought several bikes from him before so we are on good terms. It didn't really need too much work other than a good cleaning, new hoods, cables, tires, tape, and everything re-packed, but I find you have to do these things on any very old bike. It had very old blue tape all over the place protecting different areas, which was a big pain to remove, and about 300 layers of bar tape. I asked if the original owner had fenders for it (I wish!) but he checked and sadly no. The only thing I haven't done is fully adjust the headset, because it has a 1950's pinhole set-up and I don't have the right tool. I have the original saddle, a plastic Nitor Unica, but I am keeping it safely in a shoebox because I don't like riding plastic saddles.

I have included below the picture as it appeared on craigslist, just for fun.
