Well, for the "attached things", i can just guess that these are some very oldschool type of battery lights ? They definitely have to go, as the bottle cage, too. I'm also planning to move the pump from the seatstay to the upper tube, as there seems to be some kind of painting on the seatstay (tubeset logo?). A chromed one would look way better, i presume ?
It's a shame I don't have it yet, but I'm eager to start working on it. It looks like the paint could need a polish, but it's no problem if it's not in perfect condition - if it's an old bike it should have its patina. I'll also replace the bar ribbon for a brown cotton or a "natural" cork one. I think a leather tool bag would look great, too. I won't put fenders on it, I refer to "Randonneur" more as a lightweight touring bicycle.
@Lotek: I think it would be hard to obtain some vintage treks, as i'm located in germany. Much easier to find old bianchis or peugeots here.
As for the production date concerned, can anyone give me a small hint (60/70s i guess) ? The shifters are mounted without brazed-on bosses but with a clamp/bracket. As far as i have read this could mean two things: it's a cheaper frame or it is rather old...
Would you try to equip this frame with campa parts or rather leave it alone ? Until now I have no clue which shimano parts are mounted, but I'm pretty sure they were later replacements, and Campa would be way more stylish ;-) Of course I'll add pix within further progress....
Have a nice day, Bavarese.
