Steel OTP List - Of Classic or Near-Classical form
This thread is basically a reply to the thread begun by not_hip. He asked there for suggestions for steel OTP bikes,
that were up to a maximum of £600. This thread turns that answer into a resource and links back to the main OTP thread.
***Also, This thread is only a BIT OF FUN. It won't necessarlily be updated, so if you wish a bike such as any listed below, ***
just Google the name, and find where it may still be sold.
What this means is:
FAST COMMUTER / PART-TIME RACER

***On reflection, I have expanded the Steel OTP bikes to include desireable pathracer types, or town bikes with style. ***
***True, these are the opposite of the bikes above, but they have their place, and to be honest, since The Tweed Run ***
***was invented, these bikes now have a greater currency. Fast road bikes are fine, but imagine going for a picnic on ***
***a summer's day, to Brockwell Park, or even better, Blackheath Common, on town bikes. You know it makes sense. ***
***Who wants to race to a picnic, eat some food, and snaffle some wine or ale, and then race back. As Guinness knows, ***
not all things should be rushed.
