"New" Facet and a slight change to an Ironman....

The Facet came out very well, many thanks to pastorbob for facilitating.
Bars are Belleri that came on a Trek 460, stem is OEM Nitto.
Seatpost is Sugino, and also OEM, as is the Suntour headset.
This 1986 model is all aluminum, pretty light, and came with Suntour Sprint 2x6 friction.
I rehabbed a 50cm model earlier this year and it went to a BF member's sister.
I still yearned for one, so when opportunity knocked, I answered the door.

This one is 56cm and has a Tange chro-mo fork, which I may replace with a Slice threaded CF.
The drivetrain is 105 9-sp, calipers are Nashbar, wheels are Mavic Cosmic Elites.

Farther down is a pic of an Ironman I've had, decided to try a SSM Regal saddle and white wrap.









and the Ironman...
