1987 Eisentraut Rainbow
I picked this up a while back - actually BlankCrows picked it up for me since he was closer after I discovered it on Craigslist. I dragged it on over to Bigbossman's on Friday for a little extra TLC and to share a little of the fun. It was out to Ed Litton's out in Richmond, CA for a repair of a top tube cable guide that needed pulling out and all is well. I stopped by Stone's Cyclery in Alameda, CA and saw two other Eisentraut's yesterday so its got my blood up to show it off. Thanks go out to Blankcrows and Bigbossman so far. I haven't acquired any Italian steel yet that compares with some of their rides so maybe I'll just keep an eye out for more Made in America bikes. Campy all over except for the front Dura-Ace derailleur. Have only added new Continental GP 3000 tires and tubes, bar tape and brake cables and casing but otherwise it's how I got it. It needs a bit more work as time allows but here it is so far...
