Nice bike... what type of bar tape is that ?

Benotto! the hot sh*t way back in the 1980s ;)

blimey, these chaps from the Netherlands have seen a fantastic opportunity selling 80's racing bikes to london... 1990's triathlon bikes will be the next big thing!

Love that clip, wonderful work of art!

... which makes me incredibly happy. Rather this than the same price for some dull crap from H*lfords. Nice bike Peter.

thnx ocdc :)

hosepipe: yeah, I'm thinking of quitting my day job, since I make so much of a profit for so little time & work on these bikes, really...

I have a 90's triatlon bike and will post it soon!

Nice GvT bike Peter. These where the first one's Gijs builded. Lot's have followed and are world famous in Holland.

Did Gijs ever build a bike then ? ;-)

you're right. The word "build" is not what it means in case of GvT but he "produced" great bikes didn't he?

yes he did. my father rides this titanium one, without the dust and with a nicer saddle & tape now ;)

Lovely bike (and wheels ofcourse)!

those wheels are indeed nice, but quite heavy! partly spoiling the effect of the titanium lightness

anyway... no takers for the red-white & blue one?

price drop!

now €280 including delivery in UK/EU

have to make room...

still for sale?

yes it is

very tempted , whats your best price. Dont really need another bike, but have an empty space in the garage to fill

okay... another tenner off would be just not completely eradicating my margin so...

260 Euros delivered in UK/Europe is the absolute bottom price.

could i place a dibs on this for a friend please.
nice bike. will see if my friend agrees.

I'd love this bike if only it was a bit bigger :-(

Someone see value in the nisi's?
