Piff 

Some of the drain holes (or are they holes for brazing for the gas to escape?) have slight evidence of rust, but everything looks really minor. I haven't pulled the seatpost yet or the stem or bottom bracket, but I do have high hopes to see a clean frame. If it does become a keeper, though, I will do an oxalic bath because of the slight rust and for my own edification; never done it before.


I'm pretty far gone by my own measuring. Dorkiness levels ascending:

Using a dork disc because it came on a bike >>> Buying a dork disc to put on a race bike >>> Finding it curious that a disc is aluminum >>> Being excited that a disc is aluminum and thinking of ways to fit it onto a freehub.


I definitely have been looking closely at both of those models!! Haven't found one in the right size, condition, and location. Plus, I really wanted to have double fender/rack eyelets at the dropouts.
