Scored this today in Vero Beach, FL for a Benjamin.
My size, Tange 1 frame is excellent, wheels are true, 22 lbs.
Will need tape, cables, tires, hoods, full lube, and a frame-off clean & polish.
Based on T-Mar's analysis, serial # N7E5459 puts it as an '87.
Question
#1 :
I've always ridden with toe clips and straps. Are these Look pedals a good way to introduce me to clipless pedals? Could I even find shoes to work with these pedals (9 1/2 wide)?
Question
#2 :
With the pink housing and decal accents, I'm tempted to rock some pink bar tape, but in reality I doubt I would be so bold. But, I was a huge fan of Crockett and Tubbs - so maybe it's not such a stretch! What say you...yea or nay on the pink tape?
Pics are washed out and lousy, I'll update as restoration proceeds.
