I think it's actually an Australian built Ricardo. Not an Apollo.rangersac wrote:Apologies in advance if someone here is responsible for this. Looks like a resprayed Apollo IV. Nice bike with a good collection of parts but the price seems rather ambitious!

The ugliest god damned Kennedy frame I've ever laid my eyes on, but you guys seem to like alucrackium sooo...

60cm Triple Triangle Kenevans with Campag. Shame about that price. Also, what is that internal cable lip on the seat tube for? I've seen them on Rando bikes for the rear cantilever brake, but that?..
Kenevans
54 sq De Carlo track bicycle, damn beautiful and a fair price.
De Carlo
Whitehorn 60's racer.

Dunno, it's definitely a Kuwahara headset and the crown fork lug looks very like the one on the Apollo IV I saw the other day. The only thing that looks slightly different is the shape of the above bottom bracket cable guides, which could be because of the respray.singlespeedscott wrote: I think it's actually an Australian built Ricardo.

Also somebody tell me if that Keith Davis really does drop a 0

That's actually carbon too. I was gonna bid on it one time, but he ended it early. I message him asking what's up with that, with the reply being that it needed work. The pics are still the same as before but the price is now much more(last time it was about $100).HappyHumber wrote:One for the ally-can fans? Still... nice gruppo.
