Concorde Squadra £280

  • Hi all,
    Really lovely fast light bike that sadly needs to make way for other things.

    Concorde Squadra £280 Size 58 c to c

    Ciocc made Colombus SLX frame. Turbomatic saddle, Campag aero seatpost, full Shimano 600 Tricolour Groupset, Cinelli Aero bottom bracket shell, 3T competitzione bars and stem, newish Cinelli cork bartape, FIR tour192 rims on 600 tricolour hubs (handbuilt by Robolson?), Rubino pro 23mm tyres. New cassette 11-28.

    The frame has a few surface rust spots but nothing serious.
    BUT those with keen eyes will see a slight curve in the seat stays. It is very slight, totally symmetrical and has alignment is still good. I showed it to Talbot Frameworks a few years ago and he was convinced it was not the result of any crash trauma. He didn't have any clue how it had happened, suggesting primitive efforts to build in some compliance. He confirmed that alignment was still true.

    So a flawed gem and this is reflected in the price I think as it still rides beautifully and the kit hanging on it is pretty good.
    I am in Brixton SW2. Viewing welcome
