Thank You for that. I think I saw that bike on eBay too. The paint is nicer on that one , the decals on the one I am looking at are a bit better...maybe. The Brooks saddle is new(he says $200 it is a B17). He is asking $300 and seems to be firm. It is a long drive to where the bike is and I am driving down Saturday to do final inspection. He sent 7 or 8 pictures of the bike . I am not hot on the center pull brakes , but they seem to be common for the early 70's. Joe
