Is 750 a fair price for a nice condition Super with 7400?

A tad high, maybe.

What size are you after, I've got a 56ctc Master, and a bit smaller C40, I'll be selling at some point?

750 GBP? And you probably mean a late eighties/early nineties Super? (when Super was more down the Colnago hierarchy than it was before)

54 needed. Seller is not far from me so may go over and offer less, w/ avoidance of ebay fees.

I've just looked at it on Ebay. Does look nice. Dent though?

Weapon!

tks

I think I know what you've seen on eBay. It's probably the nicest Super in the world! Ever! It looks amazing. I think you should go and see it early next week, maybe Tuesday when the owner is around. It's lovely.

But maybe I'm just a bit bias and not impartial ;-)

PM me.

I thought "ChapelandChapel", why does that ring a bell...

Indeed you have made the connection. Somebody has hit the 'Buy it Now' earlier today. It's collection only and he is a good 3 hours away so we shall see what comes of it. Although I'm more than proficient at disassembling and packing I really can't be arsed! I don't really want to sell anything but sadly the money has to be replenished after a few recent buys.

Currently up for sale. Definately not my taste and no synergy to the components but sure someone out there will love it.
Worth a post just for shits and giggles.

After picking up this one yesterday, I know it even more...

Will probably change Ultegra 9 speed to something more contemporary.

Ha Ha, I think its called an obsessive compulsive buying disorder.
When you say contemporary do you mean a modern groupset or some nice 90's Campag Record?

nice,looks like casino team decor

Great! Thanks @saarf

I really like the colours, they're pretty "timeless" so I think modern parts will look ok.

@JusCos : I was thinking of at least a 10 speed groupset (Sram Force or something like that) but I found a pair of NOS 9 speed shifters so I may be just replacing the worn one on this bike and keep it Ultegra 9 sp for a while. There's still the money issue... (that has gone worse).

Curses! A piece has caught my eye , 1cm c-t than my smallest size min, will it still work? Eg, longer stem/higher post?

What've you seen?

The way I see it you have a couple of options

i'll take the 2nd
tt and st should only be 1cm out, so won't need too much of giraffe necked stem

My ideal size is 57 but I mostly ride 56 with 120 stem and I even have 55 with even longer stems, up to 135 mm.

You make me feel better !
