I apologize to the photographers for being off of topic.

I am not sure the exact year of manufacture but I know it was 1988 or before because I bought it before I moved in Oct 1988.
It looks that nice because it has probably seen less than 5,000 miles because I only use it for long trips and not for day to day riding.
The stock wire frame did not fit on the newer threadless style stems which are wider, the frame in the photos is one that I made from steel rod on a very large vice with a fine adjustment tool (2.5 pound machinest hammer) and other assorted large tools.
I wish they still made them.
