Mid 1990s to early 2000s Litespeeds are my favorite bikes to ride. I'm still searching for the elusive 2000 Palmares 57cm.

Now let me get this out there: For the love of vintage Litespeeds and all that is holy, do not replace your cracked decals with anything other than original replacements from the same year.
Otherwise, I will never ride with you, you empty-headed animal trough wiper, whose mother was a hamster and whose father smelt of elderberries. If I see oversized mid-late 2000s stickers or later model capital block letters slapped on your beautiful 1990s Litespeed frame, I will most certainly fart in your general direction and blow my nose at you.
