Very nostalgic. I remember getting my first alloy pedals with clips and straps back in '78. Then some chrome drops off a bloke in my class at school for a fiver, a Brooks B17 saddle, and first summer job wage went on replacing the 3-speed Sturmey Archer with 5 speed Simplex derailleur.
After all that I still had to walk the bloody thing up the hill to Woldingham!

[quote="marco"]Very nice find, surprised how cheap they are doing them considering they are limited stock

Or looking at it another way, surprised at expensive they are doing them considering they're obsolete stuff they found when clearing out all the old tat from the back of the storeroom :lol:
