Colnago Super Saronni road + Rocky Mountain Blizzard mtb Frames

First up is a 1986 Colnago Super frameset in the classic Saronni colour scheme. It is straight, and has no dents. SOLD

The issues are:

Derailleur hanger snapped and has been replaced. This was done by Winston Vaz, who is a decent chap, and rather good at frame building, so it works fine, but does detract aesthetically.

There are a number of scratches, and areas of paint loss over the frame. These have been touched up. The original stickers are a bit worse for wear. One scratch on the forks.

Personally, my preference was to keep it original, but a respray, and new stickers, would be an easy job as it’s one colour and the stickers are readily available.

Measurements are:
56 centre-to-centre toptube
56 centre-to-centre seattube
27.2 seatpost
128 o.l.d. so 130 fits fine
steerer
comes with seatclamp bolt
Columbus SL tubing

Will take 28c tyres.

Collection from Leyton, east London, next to the Underground station/ASDA car park. Can probably deliver to Hackney, Bow, Walthamstow etc.

Rocky Mountain Blizzard 1995 frame SOLD

In good, straight condition, and it handles really well. They had a thread on Retrobike for the best bikes you’ve ridden, and these came out near the top. If you want an old 26” mountain bike that doesn’t ride like shit, here it is. Made in Japan.

Has been powdercoated in the past (In the original black colour). The only issues are: a bit of chainsuck, and the headtube is ovalized, so you need to shim (an old drinks can worked fine for me) in a headset.

The forks are Spinner (who made the forks for Klein), and are good. Prefer them to Project 2s.

measurements are:
19 ctt seattube
15.5 ctc seattube
27.2 seatpost
135 o.l.d.
6.5” steerer
comes with seatclamp, but no bolt

Collection from Leyton, east London, next to the Underground station/ASDA car park. Can probably deliver to Hackney, Bow, Walthamstow etc.

I’ve also got some bits that’ll go on these bikes, which I’ll post here before listing in the main classifieds.

pm'd re. colnago

For those interested, yes, I can post these frames, but I don't have a box, so you'll have to send me a box, with padding, and I can post it on to you.

that nag is calling me... dibs
Will PM shortly,
Cheers,
Matt

PMd - yes please....

PS - for the Colnago obvs

for the Rocky Mountain, before I put it on Retrobike.

and I've got XT 9 speed shifters, cassette, and a few other things, like brakes, wheels, that I can sell for not stupid money along with it.

Interested , in E10 so can pick it up.
I am 5ft7-ish so let me know if it's likely to fi

I'm 6', with 32" legs, so it might be a tad too big, but it has a very sloping top tube, and is 15" ctc, so if you use a short stem, it could work.

Perhaps not then, and it was so close to home ,,,,
Pics in Epping Forest?

Yes. I think the frame's gone anyway.

Undibs just seen dropouts, I need horizontal. Go for it @Peter_Carter

31" legs .. OK lets do this

See you in Leyton Asda?

I'll send you a PM.
