New bike for the herd. Pictures inside
Hey guys,
I know there are fancier bikes but I've always wanted a Swiss made Ochsner. This is practically new. Full Campy Triumph with a specialized headset. I think the builder made an attempt at better shifting by putting a uniglide drivetrain. I Purchased it from Beverly Bike and Ski in Chicago. Video coming soon.

John,
I sure hope you ride it a bit. Likely one of Othan's better ideas. They are Royal built and ride quite like some of the better Italian bikes. I have owned two and will likely keep the latest one as one of those forever bikes. A great acquisition for your collection. The earlier models had a red Swiss cross circle on the seat tube where the normal frame tubing decal would be placed. Good on ya for picking his one for the Museum. Smiles, MH

The blue is gorgeous. It totally matches alpine slopes, endless curvy roads and Eidelweiss covered meadows. Love it.

Full Campy Triumph...
That is a better spelling than "Triumf."
Nice score.

Crank looks like the Gipiemme Crono Sprint.
