Unfortunately, it won't be me.

Wrong decals, but that's easily fixed.

In my opinion it's a 1980 (30.04.1980) profil frame with wrong decal set and threaded seat tube. But very nice one. Just the wrong size for me. Should be equipped with dura ace group.

Good eyes! That's a 1986 frame in like new condition.





I have another one, a 1987 that I built up as a wet weather beater bike... I bought it for $60 USD sans seat and wheels. This is what it looked like:



Those Tri-Bars were the first thing to go. Someone was using it in competition down in SoCal and everything was corroded!

I had to cut out the seatpost, it was corrosion welded in:






Those Tri-Bars reminded me of the radar array on the nose of a WWII German Heinkel He 219 night fighter! Confused

Sad Nobody has owned up to getting this pretty pony. I guess it's gone outside the family then.
