@Salty seadog Pearson is my LBS essentially.... I have two...neither is steel though

 

[Salty seadog]

I must say it's a good bike and my only steelie. I'm well chuffed.

I've taken me spangly shiny Shamals off me Brian to fit new tubs and cassette, so thought I'd give Brian a go with the black Shamals. Looks a bit more stealthy but still totally bad-ass

This steel is my current passion (don't tell the Faggin for goodness sake) and you get a rusty gate as a bonus

booze and cake, that is one absolutely gorgeous bike fella!

@Toshiba Boy cheers, its definitely the prettiest bike I've ever owned and gets the most attention. Its made a positive impression on me too, Historically I'm not very good at keeping bikes clean, but all that shiny silver just makes me keep it clean. I think I need to chrome up my flat to try and achieve the same results here

Roughly 1991 Graham Weigh Columbus SLX. Early 105 throughout. Have only changed the rear cassette to a 28 for hills. The Campag rims don't have much life left. Lovely comfortable ride, did rideLondon 100 on it recently. Love it.

Nice, early 'Biopace' 105, I nearly went for those when I rebuilt my Carlton but stuck to the round ones.

Nice bike, and a bargain, please give me a shout if you want to move it on, as long it's 52/54 frame

Its a 56 center of cranks to top of seat tube, but the top tube is only 54 fits me perfectly didn't even have to move seat height, 40 mile on it today very pleased with it.
