New arrival, in quite a poor condition so will have to be a full refurb, but hopefully an epic rescue eventually.
Currently taking stock of what to do and what can be kept etc
Never seen another one of these so exact original spec unknown, * think the crank set at very least was changed and am dating this as early 80s IMG_20251011_135527716_HDR.webp IMG_20251011_135455307_HDR.webp IMG_20251011_135446796_HDR.webp IMG_20251011_135502668_HDR.webp IMG_20251011_135455949_HDR.webp IMG_20251011_135431607_HDR.webp IMG_20251011_135426685_HDR.webp IMG_20251011_135415927_HDR.webp

thanks very much for sharing this interesting new find

wrt "original kitting" -

if cycle were built up by original owner rather than builder/seller the kitting would be moot

difficulty in finding additional examples for comparison leaves question open...unless of course you received some history from source...

shall look forward to following along as you work with it

[lettuce all espere that excisement of stem & pillar shall be within possibility...]

Much trepidation here when it comes to removing seat post quill stem and bottom bracket , I will eat plenty of tins of spinach beforehand, so I have biceps like popeye
