My previous posts tells me that I bought this 5 yrs ago. An now unfortunately N+1 tells me it really should go. What's it worth??..
(I'm assuming it's not worth myself changing the bars, and taking it on a trip to Mario Vaz prior to a sale).
The old bubbles and tin worm trails were sanded down, to confirm that nothing went too deep in the Columbus SL tubes. (Corrosion was primarily on the tops of the tubes, the bottoms look very good). Filed and cut out lugs, with no dings or dents. Difficult to size, but I normally like a 56/57cm and the seat tube on this measures 56cm centre to top.
Every thing works tip top and includes a Spidel headset, 3ttt stem, Dia-Compe levers and "aero callipers" Radially spoked (old pink sticker) DP18s, StrongLight cranks with a recent'ish NOS StrongLight 48t chain ring. 600 indexed shifter, 600 tricolor hubs and 105 derailleur MKS Stream pedals, a great brown Rolls saddle (which I might swap out) and a new pair of 23 folding Continental GP 3000s. (in the photo it has a 25 on the front and 23 on the rear).
And yes, it's already made an appearance in anti.
