I've been in "sell" mode and have unloaded 4 bikes in the last month.

Keeping this because I just love the colours and fit.

Might ditch the 9-speed Dura Ace for a 9-speed Record group that I have, I just prefer the cleaner cockpit

Got this from CList a couple months back and it was pretty much ready to go. Had a Brooks B-17 narrow on it that was probably the most uncomfortable saddle I have tried in my recent foray into vintage bike hobbysim. Did a full tear down and maintenance check and rebuild with all original parts. New Cinelli white bar tape and generic hoods. The fit could be better on the hoods, a little loose. New Soma Supple Vitesse 28's and some cheapo SPD's from the co-op.
It's a sweet ride! Gonna use it on my commute this week and get a feel for it.
