Retro Newbie
I just bought and I'm in the process of restoring an unusual (to me) bicycle. It's a road bike with a TIG welded aluminum frame. The frame is marked "R. Alcala" which I assume refers to the Mexican rider and Tour de France competitor between 1986 and 1994. The bike carries a hodgepodge of components which I will list at the end of this post. I would really appreciate any information on this bike and/or on the selection of components. Is it likely that someone took the frame and loaded it with whatever he had on hand?
