Still buzzing about this FB marketplace find, just picked up for $300. Appears to be in mint condition with all original components including color matched rear rack and bottle cages. It also included a brooks team pro saddle and bar end shifters. Neither of these were spec for the 620 but per the catalog they were for the 720? Everything is in immaculate condition, with the exception of a small scratch on the seat tube and dried out brake lever hoods. Odometer reads only 124 miles.

    Currently conflicted about how I want to restore this – keep original (including the dreadful 27" helicomatic wheels) or make it a more capable / modern tourer by cold setting the rear dropouts to 130 mm and making it a 9-10 speed with 700c wheels (possibly w/ front dynamo?). If I opt for the latter, I imagine I can get a decent chunk of change for the derailleur and wheelset.
