    Got just the frame off a guy who bought it in 1991, found a matching fork which might be SL rather than SLX. The fork is slightly too big for the frame, runs fine with a couple of spacers, and not as extreme as the picture suggests as it's seen without a headset.

    Some chrome pitting on the fork, especially underneath, tiny bit on the seatstay. Original paint, chips on the top tube, especially on the drive side, paint loss on the rear where I slammed the wheel in too tight and a line of paint got stripped (picture included). The clearances are tight.

    It has Pinarello pantographed bb shell, dropouts, fork crown, seatube lug. Internal top tube cable routing. Scratch to the drive side chain stay where the chain came off, picture included.

    Beautiful frame but it was always a couple of centimetres too small for me and I've got something bigger. Can probably included a set of replacement downtube decals, the ones I initially put on were a faulty batch from velocals, and they sent me some to replace these, but I have not yet replaced them. Campag seatpost bolt not included.

    Edit: any idea how I can embed the larger image in the post? Can only get this minute one...

  • Awesome frame, good price. This was Pina's top steel offering at the time. Someone needs to ride the shit out of this.

  • Yeah, the frame and fork cost 1000£ (adjusted for inflation) in 1991

  • So nice. At times like this I really hate being short

  • sweet frame sweet price!

  • Where you get the bb code on flikr there should be a drop down menu which lets you adjust the size, that will give you a new code and a larger picture

  • Cheers fella

  • Could those dropouts take a track wheel without too much trouble?

  • Yep, the spacing's 130mm.

  • still available?
