Busy building a Team Weinmann Reynolds 653 Century Eddy Merckx

EvanB, have you got a barn filled to the rafters with bike treasure? :drool:

after the frame I just bought me be thinking this dude does swoping and dealing and wheeling and dealing better than a taxi on the cape flats.

 

hey maybe we can catch the taxi to JHB and go look in his cupboard..might take a while though :)

Found this poor bike at a Cash Crusaders and was very unloved.  I just had to take it home and try and save it.  So with the help of a few Hubbers for parts. many hours of polishing all the metal and Bogus-designs for a complete respray, herewith the first test fit.  Will sort out brakes etc tomorrow and hopefully a test run in the afternoon.

Interesting bike. I doubt its an actual made in South Africa Hansom, probably something that Gotty imported and put his stickers on.

 

I wouldn't just get it resprayed, try find out what it is first because you may have something that has some historical worth.

Nice, I was considering taking the old Bianchi on the Argus light but was a bit worried about climbing Eidenburgh on the seven speed.
