<< Hey, how does it work on this list, when it comes to the actual cut-off line for having a classic, according to CR? I just have a couple just barely off-topic bikes around here and I was wondering if there is hope of them ever getting added to the conversation? Maybe you guys do it like the DMV, when they decide whats a classic -- they 'bump' up the year to qualify every year. Ok, so does that mean a 1985 bike will be fair-game for conversation after the new year? Or is it a wave of the magic wand at some point? I don't recall anyone answering this since I have been around here. Just wondering. >>
Dave: After a lot of discussion and pros & cons (unfortunately for those bikes of yours) the year for the CR cut off will remain at 1983. Tom Sanders is rumored to be starting a new e-list for all things incl. Post-Tullio Campagnolo especially "C-Record".
