That Electra has some interesting retro looking appointments.  I've been noticing how some big names are starting to tune into the retro vibe, probably fueled by the urban/messenger crowd.

Yesterday, we unpacked a new Allez from Specialized at the shop I P/T at.  Tigged, yes, but it's been a long time since I unpacked a new bike with downtube shifters!  It was made with Reynolds 505 I think (And the decal was under the clearcoat!)
