Woozers the color scheme on this bike has me drooling. :hearteyes:

Since the shades on celeste green vary on models and years I suggest just spraying the whole frame. Very interesting choice of paint container but I dig it.

So the Deore Bio crank was a spinners delight swapped back to the original Avocet triple so much better.

Freshly repainted 1980's Fuji S-12-S frame not pictured full chrome fork build for a single speed, 1x7 or something cool .

Sweet collections they look awesome .

I just heard the show was called off but it came from the grape vine can Mike or Lou confirm the status ? Also not sure if we should live in fear hiding in the house for a potential cold we may or may not get.

In my neck of the woods in ready to ride condition maybe $300- 350.

Awesome finally the first New England bike show for 2020 I can't wait.

I am guessing S-10

The rear rack and bottle cages are not anodized but powder coated Bronze chrome to replicate an anodized finish. As for BB height after the wheel swap lets a technical question I don't have an answer for. The original Huret derailleurs on this I believe were the titanium Duopar long cage rear...

I am from New England where this style ride of bike is hard to beat plus the looks you get that instant street cred.

Just finished bastardizing a beautiful 1984 Trek 720 touring bike into my own twisted idea of a dirt touring bike and I am totally in love with it. Inspired by Crust and Rivendell bikes but at a fraction of the cost well just ignore the fact of potential value of a complete original 1984 Trek...

I don't think the hobby is dying by any means its just taking a new direction. But then again I guess it depends on what style of bicycle you collect also. People that are saying the prices are high well we can thank shows like American Pickers, Pawn Stars, Storage wars cause now any Tom, Dick...

I am a fan of the Handsome brand of bicycle fenders they come in a variety of finishes.

I have a friend who was in the Boston bike industry in the 70's and 80's. The story behind the Raleigh Team Records or Record Team is Raleigh accidentally shipped 500 of the Team Records to Boston in the late 70's. The bike shops who received the bikes were suppose to ship them back but worked...

Vintage mountain bikes are making a come back in my opinion just because of the whole gravel grinder, bike packing craze in the bike industry. Older mountain bikes can easily be converted to suit, road, dirt, gravel, cross country, bike packing, touring, cruisers etc the options are almost...

Nothing better then Scwhinn bike porn. :cool:

I am really looking forward to Copake and any other show in New England.

Today I finished my 1984 Trek 720 Mustacho ride pretty much Rivendell inspired all rounder.

Sorry about the delay I just got around to taking some close up pictures of the pedals on the Ciocc. They are just greasy Super Record pedals I believe I am not a Campy expert but I think thats what they are. No gold dust caps and even the toe clips don't match the 50th ones. When I got the bike...

Time trail aka funny bikes were popular like 7 years ago when the fixed gear trend was big. Problem is with these bikes being custom fitted and made for a specfic owner made them hard for re sale no matter the components, The fixed surge is over and time trial bikes belong on a Velodome not on...

Since I work a full time job in the refinishing auto body world I did consider repainting the frame to make it totally perfect but tracking down original decals could be a problem. I have access to even remake the decals but figure I leave the bike alone to show its history and character...

So a few weeks ago me and my father stumbled into a collection of vintage Italian bikes, vintage Treks, parts etc so I figure I share 1 of the gems out of that collection. I have Ciocc Designer 84 C40 with a Campagnolo 50th Anniversary groupo. The only item missing from the complete group is the...

I don't see much of a difference of the Voyager 2 and the World Voyager. Here is my World Voyager .

This looks like something built by Ascari bikes but I could be wrong. A very beautiful build.

I wonder if this was a frameset only model because the parts seem to be all over the place . I bought the bike out of used bike shop where the owner said the customer had this built up in the 1970's. As for the yellow sticker on the seat tube that looks to be some sort of bicycle identification...

Yes my guess is late 70's also the rear derailleur is marked 78 patent. I tried doing some research on this model but didn't find much info online. It looks to be on par with the US Raleigh Competitions but has the Gran Sport color scheme .

I finally dug out my Carlton Competition and I am bored so I figure I share some pics.

I bought one of these GT's at a bike swap in mint condition for $140 road it for 6 months then sold it on CL for $200. Solid bikes but a bit on the heavy side.

The Carradice quick release bag holder is awesome I own one and it works with any normal saddle rails .

My guess this Miyata is a late 1970's, I owned a 1983 Miyata 610 it had canti-lever brakes. Good score and cool color.

That Superior is so fresh...

A Carlton made Gran Prix ready to ride condition in the Boston area $100- $200 depending on whats been done to it.

I 2nd the weakness for vintage Japanese and British bikes. Not sure its a weakness or a disease but heres my 1976 Fuji Newest and 1983 Miyata 610.

I typically not a fan of 3 speeds but these old Clubman style bikes I dig, congrats on an awesome score.

I always liked the Volare model my buddy sold one with all Dura Ace 1st gen and since then I've always wanted one. Tim you have a beautiful pair of bikes.

Yeah 2 different oranges for sure wasn't the Volare a 1 year 1 color only model also?

I believe it was 1 year only model , a similar shade orange was used on the Scwhinn Volare

Yes mine is 23" I had a yellow one years back but ended up selling it, I came across this one and was like I can't sell this one.

Just finished rehabbing a 1973 Scwhinn World Voyager pretty much all original minus the seat, tires and brake pads. I had this bike down at the last Dudley CT swap but after a little bit of wax on and wax off I decided to keep it. The Kool orange is hard to beat.

I had a Miyata 712 that was almost identical to this 1200. Nice score

Very cool Raleigh for sure, I have never seen anything like this before from Raleigh.

Time trail or Pursuit or Funny bicycles are a tough sell no matter what the components are since most frame styles like that are custom fitted for specific sized riders. Also to value a bike of that nature is tough since the market for old bikes is different in each state.

First time set up at the new Dudley location and first off I want to thank Lou for providing a bad ass venue for a bike show. Way more dealers and buyers came then I expected awesome turn out. Hats off to Lou and Mike for the show great time.

I will be setting up down there at the new location will be bringing vintage road bike parts, frames, wheels a few bikes. Should be a good time .

The Crescent frame I owned had a French thread BB not Swiss thread but some Crescents did come with Swiss BB threading I suppose it depends on year.

Crescent used the exact same orange. I wonder if it could the model below Pepita ?

That cleaned up nice grab some new hoods and it will be complete.
