I watched Gus go through building the bike Dave's selling over a number of years so you'd have to be pretty decent with a tool in your hand to even come close starting with the eBay basket case (which in itself is a good deal to restore as a road bike). Gus Preim who built the race bike is one of those old school European craftsmen that you rarely see these days. I hope Gus's Adler MX goes to a good owner who's prepared to sort and develop it into the competitive pre 60 class bike it potentially is. It deserves a better fate than its current situation.
