Picked up these two bikes for $40 total to flip. Nothing special, but they are like new. Once I put some air in the tires, I should be able to easily get $200+ profit.

We went to Ireland, Norway, Iceland, and Scotland for Christmas vacation this year. I picked up a couple of future bike build items.

In Oslo, Norway I got this large decanter crystal stopper to use for a tail light.

In Reykjavik, Iceland I picked up this lot of bottle openers to use on builds. I'll probably sell the Band and Olufsen one in the upper right for more than I paid for the whole lot. After I got them home, I realized the two lower right ones are some sort of keys. I know I have seen them before, but I can't remember what they are used for.

That is a cool bike. I wonder about that paint job. Either done custom from the factory or somebody has those paint mask clamps.

It's definitely not the OG paint. I think the frame wings / darts (whatever you call them) were done from a stencil of some sort. They came out well though.
 
Those keys look like the one in my fireplace to open up the gas valve....
PS, I think those darts can be purchased as a decal in white on eBay...
Either way, nice bike to roll around on and great bobbles from Iceland!

That is where I have seen them before.
I'll check the darts to see if they are decals.

My 3G Springer came in today. The mega apes were just too big to ship, so @Mike G sent me the cool chainring and cranks instead.

I saw those forks when I was at 3G. I was drooling.

I think I am going to put them on the Bottecchia and make it a fixie.

How much would you have to have for that lepper seat?

I don't even have it in my hands yet. Sorry, but I am not really looking to sell it at this time. It may end up on my BOTEN bike.
 
Was just curious!
