Nice frame but would have to pay up for the modern groupset and deep section wheels....

Sacrilege, absolutely destroyed an iconic frame putting that crap on it.

Paint's not original either (he says so in the description below).

Re:

It looks like it's had a nice respray but I think that the green shade looks a bit off. Regardless, as above, it's like putting Weinmann gear on a Colnago - horrible! A bit like that Raleigh Panasonic 753 that was for sale recently in Northern Ireland for a silly price with similarly inappropriate components on it.

Do their owners not understand the word "ORIGINAL"?!

:facepalm:

Re:

I'm quite partial to a retro mod - but not that one :facepalm: retro mods must have a threadless steerer and you can't incorporate a 90s Campag Aero seatpost into the design - just wrong.
