Ritchey Comp-23

asa572

Dirt Disciple
Picked this up a couple of weeks ago.
Bike is as it was purchased.
Bike was bought and left in a shed by the original owner.
Person I bought it from was renovating the original owners house and was asked if he could get rid of all the bikes in the shed (barn).
His crew cleaned it out and threw all the bikes in the back of the truck to take to the scrap yard.
He noticed the seat stay and said to his boys to get it out and he will have it.
He had it 4 years, didn't ride it and threw it on gumtree to sell.
Only thing that was wrong with it was the the left rear cantilever was seized.
Fixed that, put air in the tyres and it was rideable.
Looks like it has barely been ridden.
Tyres still have nipples on them.
All the marks on it are from things being lent on it and such.
I know it's only a COMP-23 but old Ritcheys aren't that common in Australia.

Re:

Thanks Mike.
Been a member for a while but have been trying to stop accumulating early 90's bikes but
it's a hard habit to break.
I can't believe how light this thing is, weighs 10.5kg as it sits.
