\r?\n> Can you please send me those digi pics of that bike, George?

\r?\n>

\r?\n> Just as a reminder to any potential buyer, I have a dwindling

\r?\n> suppy of

\r?\n> the original McLean down tube decals available (that is the only

\r?\n> decal

\r?\n> for this model, there was no head tube decal) They are free, not to

\r?\n> owner but to be sent to any of the excellent professional bicycle

\r?\n> paint

\r?\n> shops.

\r?\n>

\r?\n> Also, interesting to note, at 50 CM that is one short top tube!

\r?\n> George,

\r?\n> has it got a bit of front wheelo & toe overlap? (not a necessarily

\r?\n> a

\r?\n> bad thing in my opinion)

\r?\n>

\r?\n> Thanks
