F. Moser frame without frame number?

Posted on
  • Hey guys!

    I got offered a used F. Moser track frame with Campagnolo groupset, Shimano stem and 3ttt Campione handlebar. The frame has no frame number and according to the seller the reason is, that it is a professional handmade - so not retail - frame. Now, does anybody here know if F. Moser doesn't put frame numbers on there professional frames? The frame is painted with the "original colors" and on the Columbus decal it says "riverniciato" which means repainted.
    Any ideas guys?

    Thanks

  • Track frame?

  • That's why I'm asking - I'm just passing on the info I got from the guy. And seen there is no frame number, it's not that I have much to research on.

  • Track frame with a derailleur hanger?

  • we can go on and do this for hours, even years. I'm passing the info on - if I would be a Moser frame expert, I wouldn't be asking on a forum, would I? I know that it has a derailleur hanger, who do you think took the picture? On the other hand, it has no gear shifter mounts nor pass through for any sort of gear cable.
    I don't really care if it is a track frame, street frame or whatever. The only thing I want to know is about the frame number.

  • it's not a track frame
    100%
    it's very possible there will be professional / team road frames so your initial question is still valid, it's just not a track frame ...whatever you have been told

  • I suspect that the frame started out as a road frame but when it was repainted, the braze-ons for the gear cables were removed because the owner wanted it that way (to ride fixed, presumably). Personally, I wouldn't take anything about this bike at face value. If it suits your needs, is in good condition and is priced accordingly then buy it. If you're not sure, walk away. There are plenty of fish in the sea.

  • So you got this fake.

    It was on sale on here and I warned people AND THE SELLER that this is NOT an F.Moser frame, but he never cared and sold it as if it was.
    I'd return it to him.
