    Found out that the 'Il Milano' stems were probably fabricated by GB. From hilary.

    I wish I could have it.

  • Budget is probably £400. What were you thinking?

  • yeah I saw the Alec Bird Frameset (Very Nice). I think I want mudguard eyelets though, and I'm not crazy about the blue.

    More than that, I'm afraid... ;]

  • That mercian is stunning. If I didn't already have one....

    Yeah it's probably worth more than that. Right now, I mostly just interested in a frame. I would love the frame if you want to keep the goods.

    Cheers.
