Mine came with that same Huret long cage RD, which I sold for about twice what they are asking for this bike. The Suntour Vx-GT I replaced it with shifted 100% better.

Oh, ha, never even clicked in my mind that "Softride" was the brand!

Cool looking thing, never saw one before.

I know this is way out there on price but $3500? https://budgetbicyclectr.com/1985-sc...n-bicycle.html

Just a frame and fork for $275
Have seen comments on the CABE about the ridiculous prices this place lists on eBay. Kind of their thing. Don't know if they are looking for suckers or what. Supposedly they do sell bikes at reasonable prices.

A few years ago, I sold a Paramount to a fellow who was an employee of BBC. He told me that BBC gets their crazy asking prices (often 10x FMV) more often than you think. Even if it's only a small percentage of what they sell, that's still a chunk o'change.

In person I hear they are good.

The bicycle in question is without a doubt a top of the line vintage and cool with cool history and special care in the making....

Italvega Gran Turismos (sold as a pair) - $150 (Colorado Springs, CO)

https://cosprings.craigslist.org/bik...561765312.html





I have A matching set of bikes from the early 70s. Both bikes were stored most of their lives and are in great shape. I only Ever got around to restoring one of them which is currently set up as a single speed. I have Parts for both. The restored frame is larger then the other (not sure about sizes). I also do not have wheels for the smaller frame. Only selling as a set.

Maybe someone can tell me what's going on with that screw head on the downtube by the letter B.
The bike is local here. I have what I think is the same off-roadish model, a bit older and came from the factory with Command shifters.
Pricing needs major adjustment...


Meanwhile, this one turned up last month at a charity thrift shop for $100, it's all-Japanese with full Exage gruppo.
Needed plenty of work as it looked to have been stored outdoors in mostly dry conditions for perhaps years. I tossed the levers/hoods and saddle just for starters, and the freewheel looked like solid rust (I replaced that too). It fits me perfectly and rides/feels about like a real race bike.
