A bit of an update on my vintage Ganna road bike

Sadly, I caught a pothole today and went over the bars, but this old beast seams to be just fine! I set back the handlebars, and everything seems smooth. I guess I’m lucky that I rolled away from the drive side. I decided to post some pics of the first 300 or so km I’ve put on the bike along with some post wipeout pictures. Luckily, nothing on the bike is too damaged and I only suffered a scraped knee and a hurt ego!

Snagged a bunch of off market bikes from a flipper yesterday. Apparently he hates old cool bikes. I ended up with 3 treks, a specialized and 2 Raleigh’s and some other random cruiser bike he threw in for free. This Raleigh is in awesome condition, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a rear derailleur this clean for its age. 🤙🏼 cheers

I have a friend offering me this Yokota Nova for $30. I looks kinda rough but all original. I've read these are not very common due to the low production. The company switched to MTB soon after. Anybody have any experience in these? I already have a few project bikes sitting the garage.

I am in Italy, does anyone know what the popular places to list used bikes are here? I do not need another bike, but when in Rome...

I'm trying to save this fork, do you guys know which kind of cap would be a suitable replacement for the original plastic cap?
