Join me as I tour a vintage bicycle Museum in Elizabeth Illinois. The curator Paul has built a massive collection of vintage high and and some not so high end bicycles. They are all beautifully displayed in a 15000 square foot three story historic building.

Paul should be recognized as an American Classic himself! Kind collectors & craftsman like him are what makes a good, important culture endure.

Some old dude in my home town had a rod "suicide " shifter. I has an early cannondale mountain bike with the 24/26 wheel combination and those roller cam brakes. They worked good when they were clean, but it didn't take much to get them all messed up with dirt and mud. Bright yellow paint job. That's one I wish I still had.

Hello from California. Hey John, what's your opinion of Gatorskin tires?
@JohnsVintageRoadBikeGarage
@JohnsVintageRoadBikeGarage 9 месяцев назад
In my opinion I think Gator skins are the best tire if you're looking for something durable with good traction and their relatively lightweight. They're not lightweight in compared to more of a racing tire but for his durable as they are they're not bad. Can't go wrong
@jefferyobryan6351
@jefferyobryan6351 9 месяцев назад
@JJhabbs just replaced (74 Raleigh professional) the skins with panaracer pasela and what a difference! Those gatorskins make your bike spin like a slug! So the new question is: Do the Victoria corso's spin EVEN BETTER than the panaracer, or is it just a waste of money 💰?

Guerciotti - Gwair-cho-tee (Paolo Guerciotti was a 'cross champ in Italy) DeRosa - De-roe-za. Frejus - Fray-juice. CIOCC - Say church without the R. Legnano - Len-yahn-no. Campagnolo - Kahm-pahn-yolo. Great bit, thanks for sharing - this guy's museum reminds me of the Vatican Museum...too many examples of the same thing. I keep thinking a good curator would choose the best example of each make/model/color to display and put the rest away in storage or sell 'em...but I'm no curator and have no museum, I just like to visit 'em. Before you die John, you need to make a pilgrimage to Italy and visit some of the fantastic museums there. There are plenty of 'em in northern Italy so you could visit a couple each day since they're not too far apart.

Im with you. We want to do Italy. We just got back from France. I didnt see much as far as classic bicycles there. It was a let down. As I said at the end of hte video. I met him while he was selling bikes. He didnt know bikes well. He was fixing up old huffy girls 10 speeds. he didnt like to part with them so he started collecting.

@larryt.atcycleitalia5786 10 месяцев назад
Dunno much about France but here in Italy one could start with the Museo Campionissmi in Novi Ligure and maybe hit the AcdB in nearby Alessandria the same day? There's a private museum nearby that I've yet to visit + Museo della Bicicletta near Savona. Then one could visit Museo Ghisallo and the new Colnago museum when it;s ready with maybe a visit to Masi at the Vigorelli and a stop at DeRosa on the same day? There's a lot of stuff on the ones I've visited on the CycleItalia blog, but I'm not done yet!@@JohnsVintageRoadBikeGarage
