  • I tried this last week. I can't afford it and have just bought another excellent bike from @retrodicorsa. However, I was tempted to sell an organ for it. Light, yet amazingly stable and planted. Glides over crumbling roads, snappy acceleration, holds a line without you even thinking about it. Amazing. Oh, and it looks the business - just beautiful. Like new I'm talking myself round again. Somebody really needs to buy this.

  • De Rosa Titanio EOS sold - Masi Prestige still hanging on the wall (and for sale).

  • A bump for the lonely, neglected Masi - some of the more eagle-eyed who frequent East Dulwich, specifically Lordship Lane, may have seen it now resides in the window of the L'Atelier du Velo shop thanks to the lovely Josh there - a mutually benefit arrangement where I spice up the window and get a retail presence. You may notice the price is spiced up in window too, but that's retail innit - a hefty discount offered for a forum sale.
    Spec is slightly changed due to bits being 'borrowed' then replaced (with others):

    1983 (I believe) Masi Prestige, previous owner had a bare-metal restoration done at Argos Bristol with new chrome, paint, decals, pantographs picked out, it's truly beautiful and 'as new', the refurb cost them a small fortune. The paint is actually a subtle metallic that pops in the sun and is more of an orangey red. Very handsome.

    I'm looking for £1,750 for the complete bike, or £885 for F&F only.

    57.5 c2t, 56 c2c, seat tube
    56 c2c top tube
