Nice looking bike, I love the silver head tube.

Found some charcoal"ish" lined brake cable housing today, for the RD cable too. He also had some
aero gran compe levers with black hoods for $10. A shame, since I didn't have the cash on me for
all of it. In the works at his shop, a NOS hot pink Merckx frame. Yes an unused 80's frame!! Also a red De Benardi(SP?), and a red Cinelli. I love going there. It's as messy as my garage, and there are always nice vintage frames around, hehe. I'm going back for the compe levers, the hoods are flawless.,,,,BD

All done, of course they're never really done eh? Got the aero levers. Stripped, sanded, and polished them. Came out ok in my book? It still needs some new brake shoes or at least new chrome allen bolts for the mounting. a couple of the four are nice, but the rest are rusty.,,,,BD

Not so easy. I've been watching eBay for a Victory RD ever since I bought Frank Berto's book by your Recommendation.

Bikedued, VERY NICE!!! You are the king of multi-tasking when it come to actually finishing "projects in the works" and buying new stuff! Enjoy it!

That is beautiful bikedued! Very nice work!

You'd never guess I work five days a week now, huh? ;) Started a part time job, now my coworker is doing the workers comp thing, which forces me into full time until she comes back. So far the absence has been indefinite.,,,,BD
