i don't think i'll get a chance to take a closer look, might just have to hope for the best! unfortunately it's had the original components taken off it and replaced with RSX. i think it probably was well set up, and those components went to another bike. it was ridden in a 1974 race, so that points to a date-ish of around the early 70s, but i'm sure it was ridden and up/down/side-graded in the years since. A bit of rust on the top tube apparently. planning to request better pics. looking to build a pretty cheap bike out of it ideally though, so don't want to buy into any trouble!
