I got this off Craigslist thinking that it would be a good parts bike to build up a previous CL road bike purchase. It was actually better than I thought. Removing the horrid font from the down tube really highlighted the fade job on the paint. It rides very nicely! All 105 Shimano, which looks a bit cheap but perfectly functional. Brooks saddle and Nitto Technomic stem were from parts stash.

Is that bonded aluminum, like this one? https://youtu.be/2k6OsRGAADo
Watch the end test ride!
Makes me wish I kept my early-80’s Raleigh I had from back in the day.
Someone stole this same bike from me about 3 weeks ago and I don’t think I’ll ever recover. I absolutely love the color and how it rides, enjoy it!
Love the 600 tricolor group. I wish they had kept the name and the logo instead of ultegra.
How you like that saddle?
