Has that ever been used ?

Looks like it may have been refurbished?

Has that ever been used ? Yeah it was in a basement for 30 years and was 100% original when i found. I cleaned it, changed the tires, cables, bar tape, saddle and brake levers. The original brake levers were 600EX non aero with deteriorating hoods. I had a set of NOS 600EX aero brake levers that i switched it with. The original paint is flawless.

Igot it all original with little use but 30 years in a basement dried out the rubber hoods and tires. I changed the saddle, cables, bar tape, tired, brake levers and pedals. The original paint is perfect

That's a good find and proof that they are still out there

Wow, that looks fantastic!
Looks unused rather than a refurb?
I have Mavic Rimtec wheels on my Orbit Thompson.
