Hello all,
Thought I'd share a recent purchase with you as it's a beaut! It's the lightest steel bike I've handled for quite a while, thanks to the lovely late Raleigh 531c frame but also the fact that everything else which could be made by Campagnolo is - it appears to have a complete late 1980's Campagnolo groupset, Cinelli stem/bars - just a shame that they've been cut down.
The chap who bought it new and built it up was a pretty rare and amazing man, being involved with pioneering RADAR in WW2, and sadly passed away this year. He obviously had very good taste in bikes ;-)
