A univega alpina 5.7. Rather foolishly said a work friends hubby could have it for £30. All be it with all the nice parts swapped over for some cheapy bits.

I have to own up to just buying a hope C2 spanner
£18 :shock: :shock:
At least now my top caps will be forevermore scratch free

But did win a Zipp ballistic rear hub for £2.53
More than makes up for it given the price that i see zipp wheels actually cost

This one ended up being a mistake as it was rustier than I expected (still hoping to save it and donate it):

On the brighter side finding this in surprisingly fine condition for a bargain made up for it:

That is a home made replaceable mech hanger. Will sell for cheap!

The tires came with an unimpressive wheelset with stupid high shipping that scared most off. NOS Ritchey Crossmax (wire) . Newish amberwall Smoke Compe (kevlar) and Smoke (wire) and a blackwall Dart (wire). The Pewter Pulstar/Mavic 238 wheel was a 99center. Crystal Design brakes were going on the Zaskar.... but something possibly better came along.
