$5k is in Confente territory. I doubt there will be any bites, but who knows?

1972 , i'm trying to recall, was his workshop still inside Velosport Cyclery at that time or had he already moved to that red brick building that backed onto the freeway in Oakland; next door to Beacon Cycle Supply?
this would have been few years prior to the involvement with Basic Tool.

Hmmm. Is this the FS section of BF? This one sure looks like a repaint. Why does this theoretically cool bike have minimal appeal? This is one of many recently offered, very nice, over priced-at-auction bikes from the same large collection. Amazingly, some seem to have sold at their inflated prices, so go figure.
