My bright red Univega racing bike. Saw it on Craigslist and couldn't resist! It's equipped with full 105 from 1987, including indexing DT shifters. Very maneuverable with tight, late 80's racing geometry, upgraded to 7-speed. I added hand built wheels and Kelly Take-Offs for racing in the spring of 2008, and did quite well on this bicycle, with several top 5s and top 10s. Died tragically in a road race in June 2008, replaced it with a modern race bike.
