Evaluation request 1989 Falcon 531c

This frameset purchased from a BF member. Not knowing Falcon and never having ridden 531c it was all an unknown, but at 59cm the fit was going to be good. Built it franken to check out the ride. Campy/Modolo/Nervar, Mavic GP4 rims. Spunky little scooter, for sure. Never got around to swapping components but put a Super Record seatpost and nice saddle on it. Been a great fun ride.

Your honest estimates greatly appreciated. I hope to be taking these bikes to an event in July where they may sell. If priced well.

Silver Benotto ribbon stays clean, saddle by RHM with a center cutout.

Tange Falcon headset -

Unusual decaling - put a nice post and saddle on it.

Nervar crank. Bit ‘o paint on rd
