If you’re into old steel, look no further for an excellent example of pedigreed road bike. 1987 was the first year of the Taiwan built frame sets. The fork crown is more elegant (IMO) than the Japanese built frames. The bike has zero road miles on it since being restored, but has been ridden on a trainer to make sure it is dialed-in and ready for the road. Zero surface rust on any of the components and I have full detailed photo documentation of the restoration process.
