My 1984(ish) Univega Range Rover. Not a top of the line bike, but a nice rider. Straight gauge Tange Cromoly, nice forged dropouts. Good fit. Came to me mostly bare, with mismatched wheels and the worst saddle I've ever sat upon. Like I do with all the family bikes, I just add little upgrades a bit at a time, shaping it into the bike I like. Yesterday I removed the old stem shifters and added the Silver shifters on Shimano bar end pods. Fenders by Woody's. By the time I'm "done" I'll have far more invested in components than the bike is worth as a whole. Probably already past that point.
