I am just throwing this out there to see if there is interest. I have a fine Chris Kvale 57cm custom sport tourer size 57. Bike was handbuilt in 1980 in Minneapolis by Chris Kvale. You want to subtle precious lugwork, classic styling, and unbelievable paint jobs look to Chris, One of the Many Amazing Minneapolis Framebuilders. The Bike Features Vintage Campy Group: Campy Two Bolt Seatpost, Nuovo Record Groupset, Record Hubs Rigida Rims 126 rear spacing, cinelli milano stem, cinelli bars, custom campagnolo matching frame pump. I am the second owner of the bike the original owner had it for 26 years and kept great care of it, I used it very little late late last summer. It really needs a tune-up but overall is clean, no dents, no rust, scratches that have been touched up, my intent was to strip it of it's parts, and have chris repaint/respace and upgrade it to a new groupset. I figured the sale of the parts would come close to covering the repaint so if you look at it like that you get a custom Kvale Frame painted and modified to your desires for ~$1100. If you haven't seen a Kvale Paintjob or a Frame for that matter, get to flickr/his site/his shop and check him out, his work is a thing of beauty. I Am Coming to TC later today until tomorrow from New Ulm and could bring the bike if there are interested parties. I am not in a hurry to sell and won't waiver on the price, it's worth it. My only reason for considering sale is the bike is a touch smaller than I would like for myself and could use the money for new interests.
