My Look KG96 is going to the Look USA Museum
My most fun eBay deal ever.
I have been scaling back on the pack and put my 1989 Look KG96 on the bay. Then I got an email from the Look USA head of marketing asking if I would consider a trade so he could put my KG96 in the Look museum. What fun! We worked out a very nice deal involving a bunch of Look gear. Most importantly, I'm just thrilled it's going on display. And, I'm also throwing in a couple of sets of early Look pedals for the collection.

Nice! The bike that got me on this forum many years ago, a Hopper Vampire, went to a museum too.
But I'll be damed if I can find it on the net these days.
Cool development, RFC.

No kidding! What a cool deal to have your bike taken care of by the folks who made it. Wow. You will have to send us a link when it happens!

Are they putting your name on it? I wonder if Bianchi has a museum?
