Frame dimensions are 52cm ST, 55cm TT.

My current financial situation is going to probably make this a long term project. I'd love to try to get the grime off of the frame without resorting to OA, but I don't know if that will be possible. The patina of the dented alloy fenders just "look" right. If I start polishing anything, I'm afraid it'll clash with the rest. As much as it pains me to consider ANY bike a piece of static art, my current thinking is to clean it as best as I can without dis-assembly and display it. I think I would be too scared to try riding that drivetrain anyway.
