bet that bitch looks badass built

I sorry for all of those who

I sorry for all of those who what to see this guy finished. It is but I haven't had a camera since. As soon as I do I will post some.

Project no more...

This thing's built and you know it! Get off yer arse and snap some pics.

The Urban Assault Ride was a pretty good time, by the way. How'd your friends like it?

You got me

Right you are. It is done and has a some good mileage on it. However my camera has been broken for a long time so many of my bike's postings are out of date. I really need to take all of my bikes on a picnic somewear senic so I can take a many good photos of them in their current states.

!

I'm excited to to see the build. Looks like it's gonna be a sweet ride.

You and Me both!

I just got it off of eBay and am now begining the slow but sure collection of DA parts. It still has the original protective plastic over the head badge! For being 23 years old it is in nearly perfect shape.

1985 Peleton

I have a 1985 Peleton just like the rebuild your working on. I'll post some pics latter. I bought the bike new in 1985 and have done over 100 triathlons with it. (8 this year) I did replace the rims from the original sewups to clinchers. I hate the glue thing. If you want the orginal sewup rims you can have them, they are just taking up space im my garage. I have thought about upgrading to a high tech carbon frame tri bike....but it sure feels good to blow by those guys in the bike portion of a tri riding a steel frame classic.
