Ross..... Uh... TOTL

[Schwinny]

From the Albatross / Whale / Elephant in the room category I present the pride of the Canadian Bike Corporations efforts in the USA.
The 1980 Ross Professional.
The frame is actually quite nice. Tempered 1020 it says, but still with stamped dropout and tips.
The cream here is the full Arabesque 600 group set. All but the hubs which are Mailaird.
I'll bet they didn't sell many of these.
Prognosis is still up in the air but it is very clean and hardly used. Seems a shame to part it but it most likely wouldn't sell being a Ross. We'd have to change its attitude to more of a city/street bike.

I would put it up, as is, here on DOND. It would make an unusual addition to a road bike collection and it would probably clean up like new.

I won't be back to the shop for a couple weeks so it will probably be dispersed by then.
If not, I'll be doing something with it.
