While it's no Ritchey or Spoogialized it sure has the oldskool flavor. (83'?) Takara picked up for $15.00 at a yard sale. It looked like a copy of the first Stumpy when it came to me. The BMX stem w/ riser bar put the riding position way too upright so I upgraded to a bullmoose .The Brooks saddle adds a touch of period class. Unfortunately I let the original wheelset (Ukiah rims I think) get away before I knew better.
The beauty of this beast is I don't mind thrashing it in the Mi. winter, whereas if it were something nice it would just be sitting in the "museum" (ie. basement).




More to come as I get pics of my other rides and complete another project.
