nervex

Are those nervex lugs? They look like the raleigh heron lugs.

Great saddle, I wonder whats

Great saddle, I wonder whats the use of the chain? Is it for locking systems?
home security systems

Bars

Wow! Those Nittos look great! Now I'm a little closer to trying these out.

Security chain...?

Those lugs are beautifully shaped.
Awesome build. Very nice work.

Marvelous ride!

Marvelous ride!

saddle ??

One very, very nice bike... I'd still say put a period saddle on it !!! And try a not too abrasive chrome polish for those rust spots near the lugs, then preserve by regularly rubbing with a rag dipped in a small amount of light oil !!! That'll stop any further chrome tarnish/rust and improve the looks.

updated with a Brooks

updated with a Brooks saddle, which has just broken in and is so comfy. And there's not any tarnish on the chrome, rather it's bits of orange left over from the original paint job.

stunning !!!!!!!!!!!

That is absolutely the most beaufiul, purposeful machine it has been my privilege to contemplate. Everything about it reeks of craftsmanship and grace. A work of art.

beautiful!!
