Timely resurrection of this thread, as I was thinking of starting a new one about the 1994 RB-T I recently bought. I wasn't even looking for this model but it came up on FB locally and I eventually gave in. After all, when was I ever going to see another in my size?

This is the seller's photo; he knew what he was doing (replaced this bike with a Riv) and had tried various bars on it. It came to me mostly original but without wheels (seller didn't have the originals). I intend to strip it down, clean it up, and rebuild with a dirt drop stem to get the bars up a bit since I'm old. I will likely keep the 7sp drivetrain but am thinking seriously about brifters, for the first time.
