Ha! Good thing my comments were positive!
Beautiful example of a vintage 620 - are you the original owner? If I hadn't already bought one in good condition last fall (same size, same year) I would seriously consider yours.
I did a down-to-the-frame clean-up on mine - kept it mostly original - and just got it roadworthy yesterday - went for a short ride. I put a 7 speed freewheel on it - not sure I like the half-step gearing or the friction shifters - am contemplating new 700c wheels with a 10 speed cassette and indexed bar cons. I need to ride it more to decide.
How did you get the fenders (especially the front) to fit with the limited tire-to-fork-crown clearance?
