I got a bike with a shock once. It was toast so I replaced it with a regular fork, which is what the bike came with. Apparently, my shock wasn't worth rebuilding. Hopefully yours is a good shock. I...

Sourcing, try bike coops
Looks like the bike is rather complete and many parts may be original. Research will confirm one way or the other.

Sew-ups

Thanks to both for your replies. I'll try both resources.

And, I have a JC Higgins Heavyweight, though a 531 offering is out there, too.

Markenrad

Update the tape and ride as is. It is so clean and has all the key attributes of a commuter. Ditch the chicken brakes, or not. What a terrific find!

Cable stop

Interesting discussion. My first question: can I have the cable stop? Kidding. Love all the pics in the thread and the signature on your bike. Oh yeah, my opinion: spacer. It's the simplest.

Regarding the repaint. At least they did a nice job when they repaited it. I was thinking Denver, though.

Thanks so much for the detailed reply. International is what I concluded but I don't know why it has no model name on it. Someone covered it with a Campy sticker?

Anyway I will finish alignment...

New Find

I found a Raleigh...? I think it's an International. If you have a Raleigh or know about them, I'd like to catch up with you at the next ride. It had been set up with an engine. I saved it!

If you are talking Guy West Bridge, you can park on University Avenue or pick any of the grocery lots near the bridge.

Otherwise it might be best to go to the address listed.
