BEFORE

When I was in high school in the mid 80s, Dave Scott was my super hero!  When Centurion came out with this bike, I drooled and wished I could have one.  I remember seeing the ad below in Bicycling Magazine.  I also remember how I thought the magenta and yellow paint, which was also on the like the Ritchey Ascent Comp, was so cool!  When this one came up for sale, and in such excellent condition, I just couldn't pass it up.
