HI Jerry, the early 7-11 bikes were this red color scheme, although the ones I recall watching fly past me in the peloton had flat crown forks. The seller says that Serotta confirmed it being from the mid eighties, but IIRC, by the mid eighties, the scheme was the tri color sort that you mention, and the frames were labeled as Huffy, not Murray. Bikes like this were in the mix prior to (and maybe until, which qualifies for mid 80's I suppose) the 84 LA games. Anyone else?

Is this actually a Team bike? I thought the Team bikes were the red, white and green 7-11 corporate colors. This one is all red with white decals. A Serotta-made Murray for sure, but maybe not an actual team bike.
