Hello, I have been a pretty inactive member and now have a new project I would like to change that! I would be interested in some forum advice and Moser knowledge if possible.. Ive tried to do some research into the age of the bike but so far I have not made any progress, additionally if anyone could tell me the tubing the frame is made of I would be equally grateful
I purchased this from a local chap in Suffolk, he had built it up mostly with campag Mirage parts, however I think the hubs my be different. The previous owner stripped the frame and repainted it by hand in yellow with a black head tube leaving the chromed dropouts.
Fortunately the forks were left as is, and are in pretty good condition.
I would like to get the frame repainted so set about sanding back the paint. I uncovered the serial number on the bottom bracket in the process which is shown below.
So far I have managed to sand the rear triangle of the frame and intend to sand the rest of the frame and use Nitromors on the more challenging parts. Heres another picture of the progress so far.
Lastly can anyone recommend some ideas for a repaint scheme, I would like to stay as cheap as possible so will probably choose one colour and then locate some Moser and tubing decals. Apologies for the length of post and hopefully it will be of some interest to someone.
Thanks
Gazelle
