I found a used, but complete and original 57cm Rabeneick Campagnolo made from Falck Libellula tubing, from the sixties under my tree (put it there myself, hehe). it came from that auction: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8730232524 Exact age is uncertain, Campa hub nuts say both 61. Gran Sport (3rd series i guess) drivetrain, Stronglight 3-arm cranks, nice Pivo alloy stem, brooks saddle, Universal 730 brakes, Nisi rims. Rideable as it came out of the box, everything trued and running.

I always wanted a german bike and one bike from the sixites, so it is two flies hit with one slap, as we say around here :) I'll post pics on wooljersey as soon as i have decent pictures.

It is very similar to that frame already in gallery http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/album159

unfortunately i'm out of riding due to major mayhem with my knee, can't wait to try how it rides :) would be to much snow and salt on the roads ath the moment, anyway....
