The above is a response from Mudboy about the Eisentraut garage sale find. I am one of the people that usually screams "don't even repaint it" but am surprised that I went "hmm, that makes sense" to the above. I have a mid 80's Merckx that I am thinking of adding fender eyelets and maybe even frame couplers to...

How far is TOO much for you?

I own an Eisentraut. I wouldn't let anyone touch it to do those things without having the man himself do it. Except for the riding part, that's for me.
