The seat was shot, so I replaced it with a Forte' classic. Put new rubber on it. The paint is good except for a few spots that were worn thru and rusted. Buffed those out and just added a touch up to cover, which unfortunately doesnt match exactly. The decals are still good and the frame is 531 Reynolds. Its actually a great ride, but the frame is just too tall for me. Oh and I replaced the brake cables, as they were coming apart. Found this thing buried in tall grass and weeds outside a friends trailer. Tore it down and cleaned, regreased and put it back together. Wish I could keep it, but then I wish I was 6 inches taller!
BTW..Spiderman.......great pics, gorgeous bike!!
