Stunning!
I have a mate who asked me to keep an eye out for something like this - I’ll message them in the morning so can I put down a potential first dibs until they’ve had a look?
I’m based in Tunbridge Wells, where is the bike?
Cheers,
Matt

Same as Matt, have a mate looking for EM bike for ages.

Undibs - sent him pics, does not like colours :(

No accounting for taste!

Gutted to say my mate feels the same... :(
GLWS!
If I needed another bike this is what I’d want!
On that note if a split is on the cards let me know what you want for the frame!!

Yep. That’s why he is still single at his tender 45

Will consider splitting if anyone's interested

I’d be interested in the Campag front dr/rear dr/chainset/wheels/shifters. Will pm

Frameset and HS dibs pending price please

Interested in whole bike. DM sent

Very interested. I understand that I’m a bit late but DM sent.

That’s a lovely bike for a good price

Edit: available cheaper on retrobike- £450 ono... posted on both sites the same day for different prices
