The 'L' is for London right?
Huh?
Oh you mean in LFGSS, correct. I am from London and have frequented this forum for many years so thought I'd see if anyone might be interested. You know people from all over look at this site on the www right?
Up for sale is my beautiful Concorde Aquila 59cm road bike.
I'm reluctantly selling this as I need the space.
Frame purchased from Mr Fyxo over a year ago with some Shimano 600 parts. Then spent the next 6 months finding the rest of the 600 parts for it.
Drivetrain put together by Dan Shifterbikes here in Melbourne.
This bike rides like a dream.
Frame / Size / Year:
Concorde Aquila - Columbus SLX / 59cm Seat tube ctc / 57cm top tube ctc / circa 1990 est

Front Wheel / Hub / Rim / Tire:
Shimano 600 Tricolor / DT Swiss / Wolber T430 Alpine / Schwalbe Blizzard
Rear Wheel / Hub / Rim / Tire:

Crankset / Bottom Bracket:

Saddle / Seat Post:

Pedals

Shimano 600 Tricolor 8sp STI
Brakes / Brake Levers:
Shimano 600 Tricolor
Gearing / Chainring
Shimano SG 52-42, 7-speed 12-21 Shimano 8sp
Item Condition:
The frame has all the usual amazing details that a Concorde should, race number bracket, Italy flag braze-on, internal cable routing and Concorde pantographs in every spare space. The frame is in great condition with no dings or dents. The paint is showing it's age with chips and scuffs here and there with signs of being well used which I think adds to the charm but could look fantastic with a re-condition. Chrome could do with a bit of a polish. The geometry is tight and feels responsive and light to ride.
Everything works well and smoothly. Shimano 600 hubs on Wolber Magnesium rims are true and strong. Only missing item is one logo from the left shifter.
Bit of an issue being in Aus but we can work it out.
Was looking for 1000AUD on fixed.org.au but with current exchange rates and post that makes no sense so if you are keen drop me a PM and we can discuss.
