It alive and running at a 100%
 
My Eddy Merckx barn find is finally back in running shape, install new tubular tire, white 3ttt Lorice bar tape. Plus a brooks professional saddle.
Totally excited for my first real ride today:)
Will add picture later

I'm interested in knowing the details, too. In 3 weeks I will be starting on a barn find '77 Colnago Super.

Too nice to lock up! So, how does it ride??

Ex Pres 06-10-15 08:58 AM

Nice ride, but ya gotta match the tires. :)

Invest in a better lock. Seriously, that bike will get stolen if you don't start using a lock that deters thieves.

+1. Kryptonite orange or yellow.

I need to start poking around barns!:love: Nice bike.

due ruote 06-10-15 10:14 AM

Wow, nice one.

+1 to the lock comments. It's a nicer bike than I'd lock up at all, unless that's an employee lot far from regular civilization and you're high up on the org chart.

Thanx, Horatio! Cant wait. :)

Someone is going to steal that bike. A cable cutter will go through that cable as fast as scissors go through paper. It's that easy.
