I bought this bike 30+ years ago second hand from someone who had given up racing. Once upon a time it was sewups and Campy Record. Raced it for a short while and then used it for touring, just slapping on some heavier wheels and a triple. Sweet touring bike, it just disappears when you ride it and minds it manners on 55 mph descents under heavy load coming down the Icefields Parkway or the Skyline Drive. Sold it once and got a brand new Trek 520, hated it, and traded it to get her back (to each his own).

Lost more and more paint over the years, so... finally got it set up for touring with a couple more brazeons, and tweaking by Chris Bishop and a paint job by Keith Anderson. Still eagerly awaiting return from Grant's Pass Oregon, but here she is so far:

Given that you added cantilever bosses and triple bottle mounts, I'm surprised you didn't add rack eyelets to the stays and an extra set on the dropouts. Did the fork get low-rider mounts? It should be interesting to see the responses to this!

There you go, trying to make some sense out of this... I was planning on using the bosses and the single set of eyelets, but yeah maybe. Fork did get the low riders, and rear triangle got respaced...
