Bought another roadie today ha

Picked it up this arvo for $100

Long story short, I haven't had a proper look at it yet cause my mum is over and weve just gotten home (nepalese curry where have you been all my life) but:

2 MASSIVE dents in the TT. Like HUGE. And a dent in the drive side seatstay. All ive seen so far. Oh well.
Stickers claim that it is Reynolds 531 and a Hillman. Haven't looked for any telltale signs. I'll check with A local hillman expert.

Shimano 600 Brakes/brake levers/shifters/front der/cranks/headset and I'm guessing BB.
Campy fluted seatpost
Sakae stem that has been drilled out, champo mondial bars? Something like that anyway.
Rear der is some black plastic piece of ****.
Wheels have campy hubs with campy omega rims and skewers.

Bike is as light as my green pursuit but rough as guts. Will take it for a spin Sunday arvo after my old lady leaves and heads back to Sydney.
