Hi
As I'm rapidly approaching 40 I thought I'd 'surprise' myself by buying a road bike from 1970.
Ideally it would be a British, French or Italian bike from a well-known manufacturer, and preferably with some kind of significance beyond the manufacturing date. For example, I know Eddy Merckx won the 1970 TDF, but I can't find which brand of bike he rode (I'm guessing it wasn't a Merckx!).
Anybody got any suggestions for a bike (preferably one I'd be able to find for around £500 complete) that ticks my boxes?
Thanks on advance
Mike
