SOLD / Small Racer! 1995 Canelli Columbus Thron 49cm ST (52cm TT) / Full Campagnolo Mirage 2x8 speed / 700c Wheels / Serviced with new parts / SOLD

SOLD SOLD SOLD

Hi all,

I have this lovely tiny tiny bike going spare. It is actually the smallest bike I've come across (with full size 700c wheels). I've given it a lookover, changed & adjusted what was required and it is ready to ride away!

It is a 1995 Canelli bike in green/black fade, which is a french make (could not find much about the make).
The frame is made out of Columbus Thron steel so still lightweight.
Size, centre to centre, is 49cm for the seat tube and 52cm for the top tube. Suitable for someone about 5ft3 (160cm) give or take a couple of inches - it is very small!

Specs:

• Groupset is a full Campagnolo Mirage 2x8 speeds (shifters, FD, RD, brakeset, 170mm chainset, BB, headset and hubs!).
  
• Wheels are 700c clinchers (36h Rigida SHP60 rims).
  
• Stem is an ITM 70mm (moves freely) paired to ITM 40cm bars.
  
• Seatpost is fluted 26.8mm (moves freely and has been re-greased).
  
• Pedals are classic quill ones (I have others if you want SPDs).
  
  

New parts and servicing:

• Switched brake cabling to UK style (front brake on the right), adjusted gears including RD/FD.
  
• Wheels have been trued.
  
• New Kenda Kriterium 700c x 25mm clincher tyres.
  
• New triple compound cartridge brakes pads all around.
  
• New Look white carbon style bar tape.
  
• New San Marco ERA white saddle.
  
• New SRAM PC830 chain.
  
  

Overall condition is above average, it has a couple of scuffs & marks but no dents. It is a lovely little bike.
Since I have serviced, it is ready to ride away and be enjoyed this summer.

Price wise, how's £350 -> £325 -> SOLD FOR £300 for the full bike (price is mainly based on the rare size of the bike, new parts fitted, condition and decent equipment).

Test rides encouraged from The City.

Cheers

Vince

Stand over height?

@GorranGorra - replied to your PM

@Jamesa - measured standover height is 75cm, that's 29.5" in old money.
Tyres are 25mm so you could always get old school 20mm ones if you needed a lower standover height. Or get a bike with 650c wheels...

As spotted by eagle-eyed chainspotter @Ndeipi - the chain looked stretched. Don't know if it actually was but it certainly let the bike down.

Now replaced with a brand new SRAM PC830 8 speed chain.

Price has been dropped to £300 only, which isn't bad knowing there is about £80 worth of new parts on it and it took me 3h to sort it all out.
