First e-mail went out to soon, I reached for the mouse & hit the enter button
buy mistake. Add the following to the list.
Eldo or Ambo rods- Good shape, no bearings.
King & Queen seat for a Tonti frame- This came with my SP I bought several
years ago. Pan & foam is in good shape & the cover is in very usable shape
for a rider but would need recovering if your putting it on a nice looking
bike. Sticker on the pan says "Hang 5" or something like that.
Set of saddle bags that came with the 850-GT project. I don't know who made
these, Bates maybe. They are the typical rounded period type saddle bags that
you see often on Ambassador's & Eldorado's. The thing that make these unusual
is that they are smaller in size & use a different bracket than the ones I
have seen before. The left mounting bracket is intact, the right bracket
looks like it broke on a trip & a very jack leg brace was made to make it
home. I would think you could use the left bracket as a pattern to repair the
right hand one. They need painting but are in very solid condition.
I don't really want to sell a couple of these items but after several
conversations with Mike Rich I have become obsessed with making the Loopframe
racebike as strong & reliable as I can.
Thanks
