Lovely Pinarello Asolo from the early 1990s in excellent original condition. The colour is a nice, understated midnight blue with elegant full chrome stays, forks and tips. The frame is straight and true with absolutely do dents or dings. The paintwork is generally excellent as is the chrome. The decals have suffered a little as with most Pinarello frames, but this doesn't really detract from it's beauty.
AS LOW AS I CAN GO PRICE DROP - £310 - Complete with roller bearings headset & sealed bottom bracket.
2) Bianchi Rekord 920 - Celeste Green Finish (the jpegs have de-saturated slightly, will sort more accurate pics later)

Tubing: Columbus SL
Seatpost size: 27.2mm

A very well preserved Bianchi Rekord built from what I assume must be Columbus SL tubing. Bianchi seemed to use Columbus tubing for their high-end Rekord frames and as the seatpost size measures 27.2mm I would say this is probaly Columbs SL and/or Columbus SP special tubing for Bianchi. There is no sticker on the frame to confirm this, but the weight of it suggests so. As you can see this frame is in mint condition, in a beautiul Bianchi green (it seems a tad lighter than the famous Celeste green - although that could just be my eyes). It has been built up but appears to have been barely ridden, any marks on the frame I think are from storage. The frame is quite exceptional, with beautiful Bianchi detail throughout and finished with chrome drive-side chainstay and Gipiemme dropouts with elegant engraving front & rear.
AS LOW AS I CAN GO PRICE DROP - £250 - Complete with nice Gipiemme headset & Campag BB (need to check which model), but the BB needs new bearings/races.
