I bought this bike a day before I had go out-of-town for work. Pocatello Idaho, first time, very impressed.
One thing that is helping me pass the time of hotel life is imagining what I will do with this bike when I return home. I didn’t have a lot of time to look at it before I had to pack, but my initial impression is that the frame is in the best condition I’ve ever had on a vintage bike and my plan is to give it a complete rebuild to as close to original as possible. But, the bar tape has got to go. That’s just too much black in my mind. I was thinking of a grey or possibly a light brown to match the saddle. Any suggestions?
