You don't see this every day.

On another note, where can one buy that bike stand?

Looks like an old Cycle Pro item from the '80s. Someone probably still makes one like it. Here's a similar item with an Avenir sticker on it.

They came out looking very nice. You probably used some fabric softener...

That's actually mine 😀. I recently picked up a blue 77 Centurion Pro Tour to keep my 76 Semi-Pro company. My N+1 is rapidly approaching N-1, so in the spirit of marital harmony, it's time to let the Schwinn go.

I was hoping not to have to ship it, but I could. (The fenders make packing trickier.) One possibility I've looked into is shipping via Amtrak. Apparently, they have boxes big enough that you just need to pull the pedals, and turn the handlebars. The only issue is that they don't serve everywhere, so the nearest destination might not be close enough. Please PM if you would like to discuss this.

The seller is asking WAAAAAAAAY too much for this Allez but, wow, it is a really great looking bike. I've always wanted one of these, such a classic!

At $2k this is pricey but it looks to be in good shape and there are some extra parts and tools included

At $900, this Merckx Leader in Seattle won't last long but I would suggest that the buyer inspect that headtube area very carefully.....
