I see an absolutely beautiful gold bike with chrome seat and chain stays on my way home from work.The road I see it one - Brooklands Road in Mans - is a mile and a half, dead straight, so I've been able to overtake slowly enough the last couple of times to read the script on the down tube - it's a Hirame. I'll get a photo when my one handed driving skills are sufficiently advanced.
 
Condor road bike, prob 80s. Ridiculous saddle angle.

I can't believe this is locked with what appears to be an Argos £10 necklace!

No it's not a good idea; the nice purple anodising will get scratched up!

With that frame size and set-up the owner's knees must be hitting the bars every time they get out of the saddle.
 
EG Bates, I think early 80s.
