Nice 7-11 Merckx with Record 10 and the very confusing combo of DT shifters and what look to be Record Carbon brake levers. I'm wondering if someone went through the effort of removing the shifter paddles from the levers.

Krikey. Someone go get this! Those handlebars are probably worth $150. Looks like a Wicke Fat Chance.

There's a beautiful MXL in your size - complete - on ebay. In such a small frame I'm not sure something like max is really needed.
There is such a thing as too much - like 80s Cannondales.

Gracious, these are robust, aggressive framesets!!!
Gorgeous example in the exact color scheme I would seek though.
I can see why someone would like it.
I'm amazed at all the cool stuff that is for sale right now.

I would try to ride one first. If you are are light, say 140 to 160, I would think about this a bit.
I'm a big guy and these framesets work pretty well for me.

I don't mind paying a price for a bike I'm actively seeking, but his ask seems a tad steep to me. Uncertain of what they would go for outside of the bay though. Close-ish to me too... Maybe a trip to Milwaukee/Chicago is in order...

56cm Schwinn Superior Road Bike
56cm Schwinn Superior Road Bike - $250 (Mechanicsville)
56cm Schwinn Superior in good condition. One of the last fillet brazed models, somewhat rare & made in limited numbers. Made in the same factory as the Paramounts I believe. This one is all original except it is currently set up with a more modern set of wheels. I have the original set of wheels & chain that will be included at no additional charge. Please e-mail with phone number if interested. Thank you.

Canondale on NH CL
$150
Usual crummy photos. Poster says its ~12 years old.... looks like a much older model to me
Also geometry and rack mounts say touring, not racing. But with Shimano 600 components, price is right
