Cream panels probably don't count but here's my 'new lugged steel'.

Dura Ace/Mavic wheels that came with it.



Considering running some Fulcrum Racing 3's on it.


I forgot to put this one up originally also.




My first 650b conversion. For those days I just need a plush ride.

My Maza. I'm the original owner. It's been through 6,8,9 and 10 speeds and has over 78,000 miles on it (still going). I believe this is from it's 9 speed days.

Do I get extra credit for having a pic of me riding it? BTW: The pic is old. I had hair.

I have multiple colored bikes.
Spent a couple hours yesterday in the vintage biike room organizing, planning, etc.

Besides, this thread needs a BUMP.

Nice. I was hoping someone had a Mondia to show off. I'm not certain but I believe these were the first bikes with a 'fade' paint job. This one is subtle compared to some. I had a Mondia once that someone had repainted in blue Imron because the paint was too much for their American eyes of the time.
