I'm selling my AIMI track frame.
I don't know anything about AIMI but I'm assuming it's Italian built and pretty rare. Made from some sort of super light old Columbus (the sticker has peeled a little so hard to see).
It has really nice un-drilled chromed forks and chromed chain stays and the clearances are very tight, it will take a 25c on the rear but a 25 on the front might rub on the fork. It has some very nice panto-graphs, see pics.
The paintwork has a few chips and the decals have gone in places. The drive side chain-stay has a few little dents in it which i wasn't told about when i bought the frame, it looks to me like someone has tried to deepen the recess but i don't know why as a every chain set I've put on it fits fine. I've never had a problem with it and I've ridden it pretty hard for a year, it doesn't feel weakened or anything. No rust, a little discoloration on parts of the steel, chrome is in great condition, paint is pretty ratty.
I'm selling it because I need to pay rent, being 5'6" it took me forever to find a nice old track frame in my size. It was a great while it lasted, i'm so sad to see it go. It's £230 posted for f+f, headset and bb (both campag, both running smoothly).
