1988 Boss Pro Team Model

All original racing survivor.

This was my racing bike from '88-'90.  I bought it new, pieced together from everything I wanted.  I delivered a lot of newspapers, mowed a lot of lawns, and shoveled a lot of snow to pay for this baby.  My only real regret is that I went for the Redline 401s over the Boss cranks in order to save myself some $40 or so.
For most of the last 18 years it's been sitting in one shed or another.  Aside from the dry rotted tires, it's not in bad shape.  There are a few little rust spots, but most came off with light polishing.  I'm going to tackle them a bit more aggressively in short order.
I've already gotten some new pedals and grips (not on there yet), and I'm thinking I may even get some nice new chrome spokes and relace the rims (a couple of spokes are bent from a long ago crash where another rider's pedal got jammed in there).
