Otto, man, I've been ogling your Ergo bars for a while. Either they're amazingly rare or you're not giving me the correct product name.

Dig your LeJeune

Submitted by abstrait on 04/13/2009.

Lovely bike. You scored a great deal for a bike with character and elan to match quality. The only thing missing is your choice of bars, covering, stem, saddle, post... heh. Really, this '75 deserves a classic setup, not ergo-zazz. Vintage Cinelli track bars/stem, campy post, and classic Unicanitor would be fitting. Throw in some classic Pista pedals and you're good to go. Actually, that's obviously just a taste issue but seems these vintage frames play the best if done all the way. Still, nice score and at a price you don't see anymore. Take her all the way for the ultimate.

I'm on the hunt for a better

Submitted by Otto Rax on 04/17/2009.

I'm on the hunt for a better stem, headset, and seatpost. i lost an auction for the perfect post about a month ago (i'm still bitter). stem is hard to find in 22.0, and i'm too cheap to shell out market price. unicanitors hurt my boney tush. cinelli bars would be good looking, but again, for comfort I dig my ergonicity. the pedals i threw on from a bike i sold, are mated with my shoes (why change out cleats, right?). Thanks for the kind comments, I dig it alot too. It definately has character, and i love leaving slivers of metallic purple on signposts, meters, and racks around town.
