As Britney said, oops I've done it again.
Max x chrome x rad colour = my kryponite, I am weak knee'd, weak willed and utterly powerless to its charms.
Missing patches of paint from top tube but otherwise good condition, love the colour and all the chrome, up to and including the seat lug. One piece full chrome Max fork also hot as.
Also has weird rear derailleur cabling that goes through the drive side chainstay, out the bottom of the chainstay, along and through the chainstay cable guide before going through the bottom bracket, which I've not seen before.
Contacted Tommasini and they replied saying its an early Velocista from 1987, so the first year Columbus Max was available.
I've got a minty clean set of 8 speed shiny Campag Shamals that have been gathering dust, and so as I had 8 speed shifters and crank too, that decides the least cost build route. Arrived so quick I not got all parts yet but will be shiny silver campag all the way and should have all parts needed in next week to build it up, yay!
