1965ish Cinelli Speciale Corsa. I've put a Campy 10-speed triple drivetrain, brifters, and dual-pivot brakes on it. So sue me.

In the spirit of Monty Python's Flying Circus... Now for something completely different...
This one's mine - until we turn it over to my wife's piano teacher.
Chain Bike Corp. evolved into Ross a few years after this 1962 Starjet was produced. It was covered with surface rust when I picked it up from a row house in Harrisburg, PA about 40 months ago. It's soon to enter a new life as a 3-speed coaster braked vehicle for a dignified, older lady to toodle around on.

Lots of lovely bikes here - How about one not so lovely ?
A "C" project I just picked up - An '87 SR500 - My one and only Cannondale. Photo taken after I CUT the rusty chain off with bolt cutters !
The paint is excellent, and the original 105 stuff (except the brake levers), and Wolber Alpine rims still there and look good,
but the fork is a mystery, it's seat and post-less, and the stem and bars, well .......
But hey, wadda' ya' want - It was cheap

Oh, then I guess I can post my Lemond Ti which is rumored to have been made by Clark-Kent.
