I've been told that my first bike is quite special

Looks pretty neat.
'tis true
I stillhavemy old RB-1. Love it. It's kind of become a project bike for me, trying to get everything "period correct" (although the period in my case is 'college'). That bike begs for a record groupo with sun rims!
A bit too much of a hodgepodge to be a true classic, but the Cinelli Criterium handlebars make up for it. Nothing else out there is shaped quite like 'em.
What does the Columbus sticker on the seat tube say? Looks like maybe an SLX tubeset.
Says TSX. I don't know what this means.
How so?
I'm assuming he means that the first bike that one owns should hold a special place in his heart/stable
Apparently the frame, brakes, and shifters are all fairly rare and high quality.
Shifters, headset, frame, and I assume derailleurs are the highest quality available at the time. It's a very nice bike and you should be sure to take care of it.
Oh no worries, so long as my roommates don't fuck with it there should be no issues haha.
Do you have another bike?
