SOLD 1980 Faggin Competition Campione Del Mundo // Cromovelato Red Colombus SL 56cm frame // Singlespeed Conversion with new parts // SOLD

SOLD SOLD SOLD

Hi all,

I have put this together a few months back as a loaner bike for a friend.

Built around a Faggin Competition "Campione Del Mundo" frame, Columbus SL tubing, in 56cm top tube & seat tube, centre to centre.

It is the red cromovelato version so fully chromed underneath. It shows surface rust and pitting, I think people "on here" call patina. Lovely panto'd rear brake bridge, pantographed seatstays, "F" engraved on lugs too.

I did a fair amount of work to it:

• fitted Chrome Wuler forks from BLB which I purchased on here for £30
  
• new Tange steel headset £15
  
• new Planet X singlespeed kit £10
  
• new Single chainring bolts £5
  
• new 27.0mm System Ex black seatpost £15
  
• new inner / outer brake cables £10
  
  

Chainset is a desirable Sugino Super Mighty 144 BCD.
Brakeset is a desirable Shimano 600 first generation.
Wheelset is a not so desirable Carrera RX 700c clincher which I have trued.

Used parts fitted include:

• Ahead stem adaptor
  
• Ritchey stem 100mm
  
• 25.4mm swept back bars
  
• Vans Sole grips & Velox rubber end plugs
  
• Mismatched brake levers
  
• Shimano chain
  
• Black leather saddle
  
• Used tyres which are still decent.
  
  

It rides really well - come and try it from the City (near Guildhall).

Price wise, well, I did get carried away with the new & used parts having sank over £100 all in, on top of the 100€ I paid for the bike in France, which was in a way more sorry state than I thought it would be...

Anyway, let's call it SOLD FOR £175 for the complete bike.

Cheers

Vince

As always, happy to split if you only want some bits off it.

And can drop off in Zone 1&2 if that helps a sale

Hi Vince, how much would you want for the frame, fork, headset and bb if you do end up splitting?

Hi @E11_FTW and thank you for the interest.

I would be after £120 for frame/forks/headset.

You should come and check it out if you are in the area.

Withdrawing my interest for now, but have a bump for a great seller.

This frame deserves much more.

Top choice on the Sugino Mighty chainset, would be interested if splitting :)

They do come up on eBay infrequently. They are lovely!

This one is french threaded so either rarer or more desirable depending on how you look at it!

Hi, is this still available? In the City so free to come look whenever.

THIS HAS NOW SOLD

@gar3th has tried the bike and said he'll pick it up on Monday so I will update the thread then if he changes his mind - but for now, the Faggin is on hold for @gar3th.

Thanks all for the interest!
