Here's a new build for me: '73-ish Raleigh Grand Sports set up as a 2-speed commuter with SRAM duomatic hub, flat bars, 37mm tires:
I commuted to work on it today for its maiden voyage. Very smooth!

Ah, yes, Automatix! Perhaps Bendix patented the Duomatic label.

Here is my most recent built, a '73 Super Course TT with the original B17 saddle, new CR18 rim wheel set, Shimano Sport LX crank, Suntour AR FD and VGT Luxe RD, Suntour barons and Panaracer Pasela PT's. I also replaced the steel post with an inexpensive Kalloy post. I absolutely love riding this.

Beauty! The Team Pro color scheme has always been one of my favorites.

It is a super course and has the cappella lugs.. I stripped it down to bare metal unfortunately the guy that painted it did not do a tood job so should be done again.

A couple of the '85 Racing USA series from cehowardGS.
The blue one is a Super Course, and it's all original I have the saddle). The red one is a Grand Prix, one of two he has. Not original, as it came frame + bits.

My 1978 Pro, repainted by Cyclart probably around '87 (based on the DA groupset it had when I bought it) in '77-'78 Team Pro color, and with braze-ons added. I like the way it rides, but it's just too big for me, so it's gotta go.
