BBM, yours is a sweet looking bike. Modern running gear and such, as I recall. I've followed your posts about it, and had your praise for the bike in mind as I went after mine.

My recent rotation consists of the Moser, the Raleigh Pro and the one most regular is the Peckham, just a fabulous bike.

I'll set my Palo Alto up with bits from the same period as the frame. Maybe Campy NR, maybe Suntour Superbe. Soon.......

Thanks,

Julian

Could just be because of the color, though.
