I had a larger one of these and wish I had not sold it. They are nice riding bikes.

Good luck with your sale! I was just ogling one that Brian Chapman recently restored... Very tastefully upgraded to a modern drivetrain and laid down the fresh paint beautifully!
By the way, is the "1" on your keyboard broken? A 2972 model year made from Reynolds 532? :p -Gregory https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...1715e5b72b.jpg |

Ignore the numbers ! (Stronglight 93 😉). I love that teal and ivory paint scheme of the early LCs. If it was my size and I didn’t have one in the queue I would be tempted for sure.
