This is a lovely vintage bicycle that deserves to be appreciated. It has had a single owner and has had some riding time, but cosmetic wear is fairly mild for a ridden bike of this age–please see photos for reference. All components, excepting bar tape and tires, are either original or exacting replacements for original equipment. All components work properly and are in good adjustment–shifting is smooth and crisp, cables/housing look new and feel good, brake pads have little wear and the brake track on the rims also has little wear. Chain does not measure as worn. Wheels are true and bearing assemblies all feel good. Bike is very clean for a bike that has been ridden and has been freshly wiped down very carefully but is not in fresh overhauled condition–there is viable dirt inside some components and I have not inspected grease in bearing assemblies. We are a professional full service bicycle shop and have checked over the bike to the best of our ability. Please feel free to message us with any questions. Bicycle will be professionally packed partially disassembled (front wheel off, stem off) but otherwise in ready-to-ride shape. If you are interested in any part changes (compact crank, wider tires, etc) or are interested in having the bike fully truly overhauled before shipping, contact us and we can make a plan together. Thanks so much for your interest!
