Not bike related other than used to photo them, I have been replacing my older/less quality lenses with some used/better ones. Very likely the last lenses that I will buy.
24-105mm f4 and an 85mm f1.8
Best, Ben

I've been considering those... in all the time I've owned my 3-speed, I've never serviced the bottom bracket. Pressing with a C-clamp or light taps with a hammer haven't been enough to dislodge the cotters, and I don't want to try anything more violent for fear of ruining parts.

Someone brought me this, including the ball bearing rings in the small round box.
He said he did not know if it was complete.

The folks running Bruce Gordon Cycles are a class act! I purchased a pair of toe clips last Monday, and three days later they arrived here in Eugene. A very kind gesture included...
Btw, if anyone knows the meaning and backstory to chicken and egg (or is that a rooster), I’d love to hear it.

Here are some close-ups but no completes.
And here around 1980 going for a ride with Merz and DiNucci leaving from Jim's shop on 21st and Everett, BG in the back, look at that HT.

Anyhow, your frame looks to exemplify exquisite lug work. The fast back seat stays remind me of the Gary Hale that passed through my hands. The only bit of C&V I regret letting go of.
Complete photos of your BG are welcome anytime.

A couple of these pins definitely suggest a sense of humor. Who knows, perhaps they reflect was an inside joke.

Something alot newer than C&V. I cracked my first set and these arrived today.
Zipp SL Aero
Just waiting on a new set of R8000 shifters to arrive to complete the build. Unfortunately the used shifters I previously purchased had a broken spring inside only worked when the shifter was titled upwards.

Simplex derailleur and Huret shifter from rhm for the Automoto. I'll have to do a little digging to find out if the derailleur can be mated to my Simplex dropout. We shall see.
Edit: The entry in Velobase suggests all I need to do is take apart the upper assembly and substitute the dropout for the claw...
