ROAD BIKES LETS SEE EM

[K-dregg]

Got the Mercian put together. Has 8 out of 12 speeds functioning and needs some more work..

Just a thought but aren't those stubby things supposed to be pointing forward so you can place your hands on them like you do on the brake hoods?

My '74 Fuji that I just picked up today. I plan to restore this one.

[55ColumbiaBuilt]

LIBERIA made in Grenoble France 1974 or 75 I think. I replaced the gray cable housing with black, new tires, tubes, and a Brooks B-17 saddle. Brooks leather handlebar tape coming soon!

Liberia? Never heard of that brand.. Beutiful bike, but it would look much better if you htfu and slammed that stem.!

Here is my '81 schwinn varsity that I refurbished and the rest of my road bike family

Here's a crusty and rusty $15 resale shop pickup

[Bunbury]

Killer score tuga! The Cobra water bottle cage is probably worth $15...

One of a pair of early 90s Peugeots that I picked up for five bucks total.

The first one I put air in the tires and replaced the seatpost and sold for $230.
This one I put new tires on it and cleaned/tuned it . We'll see what I get for it.
It's a lavender frame with yellow lettering. That's why I went with the subtle yellow tires.

heres another one that was near free..... just needed some vigorous scrubbing and a pair of S-5's..

NICE!!! I guess I need to build the KOBE and blow it out,or sell it as is ?

Do you have wheels for the Kobe? If so, then I would find the guy on ebay that sells the colored road tres for only $20 per pair. Otherwise, you can also make decent money parting it out on ebay, but selling the frame locally. I sold an old Royce Union lugged steel frame for about $150 I think. I am not familiar with Kobe, but use the Free Craigslist Reader to search CL across the country to get you some prioces.

I have plenty of wheels , I need to find the ebay guy with the tires

Here's my Surly Long Haul Trucker, built up from a frameset, including the wheels and lighting system from scratch.


Currently needs a new fork and front racks, maybe some new tires.
