Super Exage Country groupset including the thumbies stuck to the brake levers.

Two peice handlebars - extra width for hanging mum's shopping from

Reynolds 500 cromo scafolding...

To be honest theres a point that I would pass some of these over if I found them in a tip. Some of your finds have been really cool, and i'd love to be so lucky.

However this one =
Retro find...yes.
Worthwhile rescue.... not for me, even though the condition looks good.

Don't remember that particular model, but it has a place in the animated museum of Retro Bike IMO, along with the unloved Mustangs. reasonable groupset innit? based on my old 200gs benchmark, no you cant call that a benchmark, sorry

it's a good ridable bike

our throwaway society needs some serious re-evaluations when something like this is getting thrown out.

Agreed.

now that is a nice idea,...
why don't we start a virtual museum,..show a (few) picture(s) of a bike you have,..and each model just 1 time,... :roll:


great find by the way,..
