Colnero tall single-speed - $250 (Cambridge)

Great single-speed commuter bike for a tall rider. I'm 6'3 and it fits me well. Recently added drop handle bars and new wraps.

There is something odd looking about this one. I think the frame/fork might be bent.

The famous RollerCams by SunTour. Never cared for them myself. The Scott brakes are also distinctive but distinctively different from these. Here is the Superbrake, if that's the one you meant.

Aside from that, I assembled a bunch of them way back when and I never cared for them. Ross got it right(er) on some of their higher level bikes but I'd put my money toward something else from the era.

Is that the Columbus dove on the fork? Campy crank, Brooks saddle? It may be worth buying even if it doesn't fit. If it fits, it looks like a great buy, even if you can't do the maintenance yourself.

The TA Professional crank was used on the '74. Both Weinmann and Universal brakes were used in that year, mine has the Unis. I've seen this one earlier, if I didn't already own one I'd have been wheedling for a facilitator.

Rusty hardware and covered in storage grime; pass at that price.
