I bought it ..
I couldn't resist..
853 reynolds.. in that red colour..
By salsa , in the US of A..
I have a 1998 explosif frame in 853..
A side by side comparison will be interesting.
Been watching it for a few weeks.. they don't come up often. I've got a salsa casseroll that rides great on their proprietary 4120, lovely, apart from drop handlebars..
I will try my best.. eventually. With winter on its way.. I'm stuffing all the cro mo bikes away.. not worth the aggravation.
Titanium, carbon and aluminium season.
I'm thinking restomod..with a few links to the past. Will clear coat the frame after it's been cleaned.. I love the patina on bikes, they all tell a story.
ATM all I've got on my mind is a rocky mountain vertex team scandium frame that is crying out for xtr m970..
