Early nineties Concorde Prelude made from Columbus SL tubing, most of which were made in Italy under licence by Ciocc. This is almost certainly Ciocc built as it has the same style seat stay arrangement, but without being an expert it's hard to say 100%.
The seat tube is 58cm and the top tube is 57cm both measured c to c. The front spacing is 100mm, the rear is 130mm and the bottom bracket is stamped 58SL 10730 and is Italian threaded.
The frame is in great condition although does show some signs of use. There are a few chips in the paint near the seat tube and a couple more around the head tube, along two cable rub marks, but overall the original metallic paint looks great. There is absolutely no rust or dents and the chrome is excellent, bar a couple of tiny pits right up under the fork crown that would disappear with some elbow grease.
It has horizontal dropouts so will make an easy conversion and it still has all the braze ons if you want to gear it up. The BB in the pic is not included although the stronglight headset is.
Overall this is a solid Italian built frame in good condition that will look great once built up. It has has some nice quality touches like internal cable routing, flag braze on and cut outs in the BB shell.
I can post in the U.K if you arrange the courier. Interparcel are pretty good and have done me well in the past, otherwise collection is from London, SW6.
