For sale is my 60cm Colnago Frameset, it has a stunning blue/dark purple/'carbon effect' paint scheme with chromed straight forks, head tube lugs, and drive side chain stay.
The paint has several worn patches and imperfections which I have tried to show in the photos. There is also some flaking of the chrome on the fork blades, I thoroughly cleaned the oxidisation which resulted and protected the areas with 'bike tape'. This was done just over a year ago when I bought the bike and there has been no deterioration since then. These imperfections are purely cosmetic and the frame is completely structurally sound, with no dings or dents. As the photos show, it is still a stunning frame and garners much attention.
The frame is constructed from Columbus SL tubing, and was built in 1990 according to the previous owner. The frame rides beautifully and is has been very comfortable on many long days in the saddle, but is also light and agile enough to hold its own on fast club rides.
The frameset also comes with a Campagnolo Record threaded headset in great condition, the bottom bracket is Italian threaded and the frame has a braze-on front derailleur hanger.
