What a wonderful, beautiful thing! I think it belongs in a museum, but maybe they have a bunch of these over there...? This is the kind of bicycle I try to replicate with some of my builds. Not necessarily the same hardware, but certainly the same design ethic. If I were to buy it, I would hang it from the wall in my shop for inspiration. Thanks for posting this, crank_addict!

Nice time capsule-ish Bridgestone XO-5 for $40
Probably already gone, nothing more underrated than a nice, comfy early 90s steel hybrid.

^^^^ The Blackburns and panniers make this a pretty good deal. Nice build with the barcons and aeros, exactly what someone would do with an '83 sport tourer in, say, '87.

On a totally different subject, in 2 hours, it looks like this Follis on-base at Dover in DE will go for $65 if someone actually bids: https://www.ebay.com/itm/143530659598?ul_noapp=true
Granted, this would only be a good deal if local pickup were an option. @crank_addict has one he's working on over here, it's quite similar (I think his may be a 172, though, his is definitely a bit better)
