Bought it on impulse from a charity shop because it was so pretty.
Sadly the frame it chipped and flaking in many places.
Front derailleur is very gummed up, the there's s slight slack on the bottom part of the headset, the rear tire is a tubeless design that's not been installed properly and bulges slightly and handlebar tape needs redoing.
Not sure if it's worth taking as a project as I'm not sure I'd ride it (I do a lot of winter commuting and the aluminium frame seems too dainty for that sort of use).
Thoughts?
Here's what I was able to find:
Serial number: 990012 (likely 1999)
Shimano 105 crankset (FC-1055): produced 1988-1993
Shimano RX100 brakes (BR-A416): early to mid-1990s
