Post a pic - 'mint' examples of classic bikes are always interesting.

Now, re: my original post - I wasn't going to take a pristine 760 off the wall of the Smithsonian and melt it down for bird shot.

I was simply considering giving a new and prolonged life to a well-used 760 frame and fork that is for sale on this site and nobody seems to want - been sitting for a while. If nobody buys this thing and re-builds/re-purposes it, then who knows - it could wind-up sitting on the curb some day because it never got a second life. Is that preferable to an evil 650b conversion?

So, calling all BF vintage bike purists - here's your chance!! For $275 you can rescue this classic frame and fork from the likes of ME! Act now, operators are waiting!



p.s. If the guy who is selling this F/F makes a sale because of this discussion he owes me $50!!!
