Jeff, enjoy your new gold Lambert! Will you take it for a spin on a dry day? You've set the market price for a NOS gold Lambert, so take good care of it and make sure it gets added to your will for your favorite son/daughter/close relative! Make sure they know it's not intended for a garage sale down the road!
Cheers, Michael

yes, enjoy. Whether you ride them, or just display for their visual appeal, enjoy them thoroughly.
Congratulations,
Frank

hi there-not collected "gold" yet...needs new tires i suppose. thnx for congrats; as they say, we are all just caretakers; someone else will own it in a hundred years?! theres supposed to be a lambert rear derailluer on rear [srry for spelling]. no, i dont think that qr came on top, he has the correct part. weinmams ddnt come on it; he knows where the gold calipers are. i might put on white tape[leather of course]. he has an extra suede saddle! the seat downtube has blue circular stickers; the gold bike i paid 500 bucks for including shipping has red circular stickers; which leads me to believe the nos bike is an earlier model. if you look at the downtube shifters they are curled levers whith different knurled knobs to tighten with [partly why i bought it]. i will put a suntour on the other gold bike as thats what my purple 72' 15 speed which i bought new came with..that bike came with a weinman on just the front. the handlebar insignia/writing faces towards the rider on the nos gold instead of outward on most/all other lamberts..maybe "velocals" can make more copies of gold sticker on back of suede seat. i have a set of 3 lambert stamped cable clamps still in wrapper if the ones on bike say something else[are we nuts or what?]..maybe new brake pads for a ride around the block. i have a local bike shop i trust implicitly. no marks on either gold bike appear to be common;time will tell. i cant change tires myself; definitley wouldnt try to learn on this bike. i have nos toe straps in both blue and red [lambert stamped] just in case; are we nuts or what?! otherwise all stickers appear to be identical on both gold bikes. more to follow..vfrman
