A modest 90’s color bomb
= The perfect every day bike
Bought this bicycle from a woman in Wallonia who used it as a daily ride. It looked horrible at first. For example, you might notice the paint missing on the front fork due to a speedometer. Luckily, we were able to clean/ buff most of the scratches out of the paint.
We finished the bicycle off with; a 1989 Mavic group set with the “shark teeth” cassette, starfish, 573 hubs, Look pedals, San Marco seat post, 3ttt handlebar combo and some nos Clement tires from a time when tires where getting thinner and thinner. Excuse us for the leftover dust and grease.
