Wow! $362. I just sold my '77 PX10, which was very, very clean for $250 in the market here. I would have accepted less... It went in a matter of hours.

It was a 25" frame that I'd built as a project back in winter 80-81, then hung up and never rode. It was too big.

No complaint, tho. The guy who has it was very happy to get it. I'll call it a "pay it forward" (just a little).

In the meantime, tho', with this large stash of high-end French NOS components, I've just impulse bought a nice 1985 Mercian. (Not Mercier). Go figure.

Did I mention the doing things backwards part? Yup.

Thanks for all the idea, tho. What would really, really be cool would be to find a high-end, 531 or better, French-threaded mixte. I'd love to slather all the high-end bits on that. It'd feel like a hot mistress! Then I'd give it to the wife.

:-)
