Not a steal perhaps but a great find at a great price. Merry Christmas as they say in the auction biz. And Happy New Year!!

^That one would have been worth the drive to Austin from here in San Antonio. Saw it a few hours after posting but I'm good where I'm at with bikes. (then why was I on CL?) Its still fun to look
Glad you got it!

Nice day at the gear swap as I met an ex Sachs rep who was selling off a ton of great nos stuff, could not buy it all but could not resist the campagnolo made new success crankset and bottom bracket and will get back to him on nos freewheels and internal gearhubs.
Also found a Sugino Mighty Competiton in great shape, mks touring pedals, and a short cage Shimano DX rear d and the matching front d.

I've been preoccupied- just picked up a vintage '84 Panasonic on CL.
For a mere $25.
As a whole the bike is a POS (not unlike a 'bum-bike,' really), but the frame is in excellent shape and will look beautiful after cleaning & powder coating.

Not exactly from the dump, but it is definitely my Catch of the Day:
Never used Shimano BB-6400 in its box with French and English cups. The plastic bags inside are unopened.
It was under 20 USD with today's rate. Not bad, not bad...

WV is not flat..
A friend gave me this to take to the swap meet in Feb., but I'm on the fence about keeping it. First Masi I have had. Not sure of the year yet. Serial number is F02121107. It has Campy Chorus hubs and brake calipers.

A Miyata 1000 and yes it had bum bars and a set of random 27" wheels on it too. It now has nice Shimano 600 hubs 700c wheels, new cables and housings, new bb etc. etc. It was a real diamond in the very rough

Nice that Miyata could find a nice home, where people care for it , and give it the affection it needs . Looks like it's thriving .

That is a beautiful Masi, and if the price is right it will make it's new owner a very, very happy rider. Masi has a well-earned reputation for building outstanding race bikes. Not my size or I would try to work out a deal with you.....

I've read mixed reviews,but this one is pretty nice. I'm finding a price range of anywhere from $199-$300 for the frame set and fork.
