Bought today off of Gumtree with hopes of sticking a Brookes saddle and some sleek silver wheels on it to use as a commuter but on the ride home I realised it's too big. I knew it all along but was in denial in the hopes that it being a vintage frame means I should be more stretched out, but no. Shifts like and dream and surprisingly good brakes from what I gathered from the ride home. Seller was adament that its Columbus SL tubing as he checked the head tube for spiral reinforcement. Concorde's history matches up so I took his word for it.
I'm sticking some fresh Whatever's-In-The-Drawer bartape on it before sale and will give a thorough clean of everything including the cassette before sale. Also looks like a fresh chain, 11-28t cassette and what looks like a new set of compact chainrings on there.
Other specs:
Looking for £300 but feel free to make offers as I may have overpaid.
