Subject: [CR]thoughts wanted on a 3rensho i just acquired...

andrew at the yellow jersey doesnt have a record of the serial #, but says it (c147) indicates a show bike, or a sponsored riders bike... we both guess it at mid-80s, but im wondering if anyone spotted anything similar at interbike or somewhere during the 1980s...

time trial "aerodynamics" frame, red/white/blue fade, about 57cm (sizing curve-tube funny bikes is a pain in the butt!). only original components i have are the 3rensho panto'ed nitto stem, the nitto aerodynamics bar, and the dura-ace/araya aero 1 24" front wheel...

might be just out of cr list period, might be just barely in. i figured it was close enough to ask...

thanks!
