The borderline vintage thread

Sometimes bikes are not modern - nor vintage. My riding buddys regard my most modern bike as being from the stone age and it is just 20 years old. I reckon them being on electronic derailleur full carbon rockets looking at me as strange when I show up on this. Imagine when I bring my late sixties bikes...

Took it for a spin today. Hunting dog Pekka was not impressed. He sniffed the tires quickly but as I had not run over anything interesting he soon thought his favourite ball much more rewarding.





Actually this one is too modern for me and I bought it to get the aluminium 10V Chorus Ergopower brifters (for another build). Then I realized I had 10V Record to substitute it with and built it. It is a good bike for riding - I have to admit. Reluctantly.

As it looked when I found it (had to get a longer stem to make it fit me):



If C&V forum rules admit it - please add your borderline vintage rides!
