Stan Engelbrecht Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 I call her Penelope. She is, as the picture portrays, a pink "pro racer". There is no indication anywhere about where she comes from but after hours of research and a little consultation apparently she may have been built by DHC - Deale & Huth Cycles. I hope this means I qualify for this competition as it would mean the world if I could ride her for Eroica SA. IMG_4864.JPGLovely bike Joe.
Stan Engelbrecht Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 A 1983-84 Alpina restored in metallic grey and fitted with one the most beautiful group sets ever produced - Shimano 600 Arabesque.The bike has a nice touch of History with the front of the handle bars panto graphed with the words Alpina on the left hand side and Rapport Tour 83 - 84 on the right hand side. ( Rapport Tour TV4 team issue)A very nice example of a bicycle manufactured in South African.Wow I would love to see this in person, especially that handle bar...
Stan Engelbrecht Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 The lucky winner of the competition is 'Go Big'We love the paint job on this frame and it's amazing that it's in such good condition from the factory. Just remember those parts aren't fitting with Eroica rules! Send an email to info@eroicasouthafrica.com to claim your place.Thanks!
