Hi All,

I had a brief obsession last year with RB-1s (they are divine) but can no 
longer justify keeping both this complete and frameset sitting in my 
garage.  I am down to 1 bike, an 80s Specialized Expedition for all my 
commuting/hauling needs riding on LA city streets.  1990 was the first year 
with the longer top tube, with both frames the same size at 62cm ctt ST and 
60cm ctc TT.  
This is a slightly unique situation so keep reading:
The complete bike is cosmetically and mechanically in very good shape 
except for a small indent in the non-driveside lower chainstay (I 
photographed as best I could).  The previous owner bought it from the 
original owner who had it hanging in his garage since the 90s.  The 
chainstay dent happened in the original owner's possession.  Both the 
previous owner and I had many happy miles on the bike with no issue or 
visible change in damage.  It is very minimal, and in my eyes, 
non-terminal, but everyone has different thresholds for comfortability on 
things like this, I understand.
This brings me to the next part of this offering - in this package is an 
additional 1990 62cm frame in black.  I bought the frame thinking I'd move 
the parts over and make a singlespeed from the White/Purple frame, but I 
never got around to it and moved on. This frame has some paint damage, but 
I touched it up very carefully with an almost exact colormatch - the only 
evidence of paint damage is seen by texture, mostly on the top tube (which 
I tried to photograph in direct sunlight).  The frame has been treated with 
framesaver and the Tange levin headset has been serviced with bearing races 
in good shape.  This also comes with a 27.0 Nitto S65 seatpost with minimal 
wear.

Complete build:
Suntour GPX Cranks, derailleurs
Suntour Accushift Shifters - indexed to 8 speed (Yes, the additional click 
on the 7 sp shifter is being used and is extremely crisp and accurate)
Velo Orange 27.0 seatpost
Deda Elementi Special 44 ctc handlebars
Nitto Technomic 100cm stem
Selle Italia Flite saddle
Shimano 105 hubs laced to H Plus Son rims (I would say 200 mi on these, max)
Vittoria Rubino Tires - 28mm
Yes, there is a "Ridestoned" sticker on the side of the top tube.  This was 
put on by previous owner and I kept it for the laugh.  Easily removable.

I also have an almost new Brooks c15 cutout (all black) I'd be happy to 
give you a great deal on.  In addition, I have almost a full build-worth of 
parts that were intended for the black RB1 frame - these center around a 
dura ace 8/9 sp drivetrain and a few other odds and ends.  I would be happy 
to discuss these at advantageous pricing if interested in this package.
