Description

I have a Vintage BENOTTO Road Bike to TRADE for a used Mac Computer. I know this is a long shot.... I am presently using a 14 year old Mac Pro5,1 desktop computer and I would like to find something similar - but newer. ------------------------------------

Apple has just announced another new line of silicon Mac Pro computers. I am hoping that there might be a bike enthusiast or bike collector out there who has replaced his or her 5-year-old old Intel Mac Pro desktop computer with a newer Silicon Mac Pro or a silicon Studio model recently and might have an Intel Mac Pro (or at least know where they can legally lay their hands on one ) that he, she, or they might be willing to trade for this vintage Benotto bike. I am not interested in any Windows PCs, iMacs, or MacBooks. ------------------------------ This is a Benotto tandem bike from the mid-1980s with a decent build: Campagnolo alloy derailleurs, Campagnolo levers, 4 Campagnolo pedals, Campagnolo brake callipers, Miche alloy crank sets, two Brooks leather saddles, 2 Rino Cambio alloy seat posts, Cinelli alloy rear bar, Weinmann alloy wheel set, Gardin alloy stem, Cyclo alloy front bars, and a fully functional mid-80s CatsEye VELO CC-1000 computer / odometer / speedometer. The bike is about 35 years old so there are some scratches and blemishes in the paint but the bike has seen very little use, and has been mostly ridden solo.

As with "Classic" steel frames, the frame size numbers indicate the lengths of seat tubes as measured from the centre of the bottom brackets to the top of the seat tubes: 23-inch (58cm) front for the captain. 21-inch (54cm) rear for the stoker.

The 23-inch (57cm) front will suit a rider from about 5'9" to 6'2" and the 21-inch (54cm) rear will suit a slightly shorter rider, from about 5'4" to 5'8". Seat heights are adjustable. This style of tandem frame is obviously designed for two riders but the bike works just fine with only one rider if he sits on the front saddle.
