Hey guys! Here are some updated pictures of my Dave Scott Master I picked up yesterday. The seller was gracious enough to replace the tires and tubes and clean and lube her for me! The seller also gave me SS cables and new black housing ( I’ll probably buy white housing and keep the black housing in my parts bin though). I rode her last night and it was a great ride!! I really like these old 80s Japanese made road bikes. I wish I had the budget to buy fancy American or Italian made vintage bikes but I have a mortgage and I’m a millennial that bought said house in 2022 so needless to say I’m a broke boy lmfao. Anyway, please enjoy the Beaty shots of my two Centurion Ironman (Ironmen??)

Great bikes, and hard to find complete like that. If the hoods are in good shape, keep them clean as the white ones are rare as hens teeth.
Oof don’t clamp top tubes!
Very nice
Which size fits you better?
I should probably buy the red one that has been languishing on my local CL for months now but I have too many bikes already
They’re looking great. Japanese bikes from the 1980s and 1990s are great, and like you said, they usually aren’t too expensive. I don’t have the budget to justify $1000+ dollar 1980s Italian road bikes, but there are a lot of really decent bikes out there for $200-$400, sometimes a lot less if you can get lucky, but I feel like the 2-4 range is more than fair for what you’re getting most of the time.
