Vintage 62cm Recherche Road Bike with Swiss Crest - $2,250 (San Luis Obispo)
QR Code Link to This Post
Builder: From the shop of Dave Moulton, a highly regarded English framebuilder who worked in California in the 1980s. His frames (Recherche, Fuso, and John Howard branded bikes) are collectible and known for superb geometry and craftsmanship.
Brand/Decal: Recherche with the Swiss crest – this was one of the boutique labels Dave Moulton produced frames under before settling on “Fuso.” Very limited numbers were made.
Components: Full Shimano Dura-Ace (looks like mid/late 1980s group, judging by the crankset, down tube shifters, and side-pull brakes).
Serial Number: #175 – very early in the production run. Collectors often pay a premium for low production-number frames.
This bike is in very good original condition, rides smooth, fast with light steel, classic geometry.
