Thanks for posting this thread, Vonruden. Mexican bikes do not pop up often on this side of the pond (if at all). Interesting!

My Windsor. Not sure what model/yr it is? Had it for years. Acquired on a trade for my wife, but was too tall for her. Set it up w/ Campy Off-Road Bullet Shifters. Comfy riding bike w/ it's long wheelbase, but doesn't see much action lately.

OK , old thread , but I'll play. Here is my 1973 Windsor Pro. I am the third owner and the second only had it for a short period of time due to it being too tall. This one was raced and shows its age . It came out of San Luis Obispo California . The original owner had it done up with Phil hubs and Gentleman Super Champion wheels . I changed the brakes from center pull Universal to Campagnolo Record side pull but left the Universal levers. I added a pair of Superleggeri pedals and have been riding it the way it is . I have no plans of a paint job , I think it is fine the way it is. I rode Eroica California 2017 on this bike and it was awesome!

Reviving an old thread. Here’s my latest project. Needs a lot of work, but it should be fun. I’m thinking mid 70’s Windsor Pro.
