I think that's not all that much more than I paid for the Fuji S-10S I took to Europe in the summer of 1974, which was a very high quality (and even higher value!) bike. IIRC, price was $195. Carried me and gear all over England and France, while I attempted to find myself. (Still looking.)

Sure, I'll use it for S24Os. I think the bike probably cost about $150 in 1973.

I got the racks and fenders installed. It is a lot of work doing this kind of integrated install. The rear has no frame mounted stays. It bolts on at the dropout and then bolts to the fender in two places. The front attaches at the dropout, at the crown with a daruma, and to the rack platform. Now I'm ready for just about anything. Except now that the fenders are fully fitted, now I get to take them back off for pinstriping! On Thursday, January 23, 2014 10:22:19 PM UTC-8, grrlyrida wrote: What a beautiful bike.

I rode it around the block and I'm extremely pleased so far. The real highlight is that the 40 year old Dia Compe centerpull brakes have extraordinary braking power. I'm really really impressed. It's not done in my mind until the racks and fenders are on, but getting it to rideable was a big step. The racks ought to be in soon, maybe tomorrow, and then I'll be able to do the rack and fender install. Even without racks, the Saddlesack Medium fits, so this bike is S24O ready. It's full Alba-smile worthy. Imperfection side story. I was so thrilled how the bar tape looked with clear shellac. I ran out of clear and rushed down to the hardware store. They were down to their last can of clear, and that can was kind of banged up. It had splatter and drips on it, but it seemed full when I shook it. Whatever. I bought it and have done a couple more coats of "clear". It's looking more amber, and the one side that I first did with clear looks lighter than the side that got three coats of this tainted can. Oh well, we're making memories (as my mom always says)! Tons of Photos -- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
