Which one, his? Yeah, probably. The only info I found shows that a) opaque green was a rare color - not offered much and b) that the '72 only came in single color paint with chrome "pie plate" spoke protector and chain ring guard along with a few other accents. Sounds cool, though.

One quick question: the chrome on top of my fork is a very thin piece of metal with a few cracks in it on top of more CroMo. Is this anyhting to be concerned about or should I just leave it?
