Here's something similar frame-only this time, and... somewhat more subtle paint job

yeah that is pretty cute. I think he mightve tried too hard with the paint though, it's not awful, just a bit... garish?

Anyone in Norn Iron? Ti Dynatech here for £75. I can't tell whether it has a paint effect or the paint's coming off! At least the paint could be just rubbed off and the metal polished!

nice clean original condition some areas of paint loss but i would say its a 70's bike so what do you expect , at some point i would say the seat tube has been warmed to release a tight seat post looking at the paint discolouration .

i would be happy to help with collection but wouldnt want to pack it due to its large size

Here's a crank that says sexy time all over it! Ooh mama it's the good shoot! But much too pricey for me to entertain, I'd want a whole bike attached for that price.
Biike porn or what?

I'm not saying it's too expensive, just too rich for a tight arse like me

Yebbut it says "Eroica" in the heading. Seriously, if I wanted a Stronglight "Randonner" (sic) triple, I'd be looking for more sensible chainrings: 52/48/36? What's that all about? That RH crank can use chainrings down to 28t, if I remember correctly, if you can still get hold of them.
