1967 Paramount. Not even remotely period correct components.
1961 Bianchi Competizione with "period more or less appropriate" upgraded componentry.

1966 Raleigh Sports:
Late 60s(?) Legnano (has a decal headbadge, which might make it a '70-72, but I'm not sure)

They're from Italy, here's another shot:
I have three, one is vintage, the other two were sold as reproductions but I can't really tell them apart.

And now for something completely different.....
Mid 60's cycle truck!
This is the before pic. I have replaced the basket plywood and straightened out the basket. New rims, spokes, pedals and chain.
I guess I better get a current pic for you.

There is something timeless about this old Cinelli. Maybe it's just because this was the quintessential racing bike when I was discovering bikes but it feels like something more. So simple and functional but elegant and beautifully crafted. The setting and the photo capture this feeling beautifully.

Have these both posted elsewhere on the forum:
circa 1960-62 Armstrong convertible pathracer, fankenbiked with 60s stuff, 70s coke-bottle green Dawes town bike grips and a recent B17.
1966 Raleigh Sports frame, wheels from a '52 Norman, Moulton stem,
I finally got that front shortie turned the right way around.
