For Sale: Classic Daccordi Track Bike - Gipiemme build

Absolutely gutted that i have to sell this. It's my favourite of all my bikes but not used enough and I need the money.
Here's an edited version of the original description. It hasn't changed.
So, a very beautiful Vintage build:

Built up mostly with Gipiemme components. Since its build 2 years ago it's been ridden a few times at Herne Hill, there and back from the East, as well as once on the Tweed Run. So minimal mileage and never seen rain.
It's been mostly hanging on a wall...

Daccordi pure track frame, tubing unbadged but almost certainly Columbus SLX, the frame is very light. Very good to excellent condition, no dings / dents and just a couple of paint chips and one or two scratches, most of which show in the photos.
The forks are in good condition but there is one area at the top of the right fork where the chrome has flaked off. Even so, in very good condition for its age (I think it's probably late 70s / early 80s). Lovely lug detailing. No drillings.

Spec as follows - due to minimal mileage, (nearly) NOS parts.

Frame: seat tube c-t 54cm; top tube c-c 52cm. Very light, weighed by Retro_di_corsa at 1.6kg. Standover height is 79/80cm.
H/s - Campagnolo, came with frame.
BB - Gipiemme Pista
Cranks - Gipiemme Pista, 170mm, 144bcd 48T Gipiemme chainring
Cog - Condor 19T CNC machined
Lockring - Gipiemme
Pedals - Gipiemme Sprints, good but worn; Christophe toeclips
Wheels - NOS Gipiemme small-flange pista to NOS Mavic MA2 rims. Rubino Pro 23mm tyres.
Seat pin - Gipiemme Cronosprint Aero 27.2 - ok condition, bit scratched on chrome surface. looks great though.
Saddle - NOS Iscaselle Tornado
Stem - 3ttt 90mm
Handlebars - 3ttt pista, 40cm with NOS Benotto tape

Bike is set up in pictures for someone 172cms / 5'7''ish tall.

I'm looking for a bit less that what it cost me when I bought it from Pajamas here on the forum: £525, bank transfer/paypal/cash to collect from Brixton.
I won't be splitting until further notice, so if you want to make a sensible offer then feel free, but bear in mind what you're getting for the asking price.

Amazing build, awful pics...

Teh sex

Gorgeous italian steed right there!

Thanks. I'll add some different pictures tomorrow.

No more pictures 'til tomorrow. I've dropped price to comply with te rulez and bump.
Surprised at the lack of interest. More background:
Near NOS Gipiemme hubs are rare as hens teeth, wheels alone cost £250 to build.
Gipiemme Cranks and chainring are highly rated too.
So, a Campag equivalent groupset but much, much rarer and a seriously lovely frame that's light as a feather.
Going to have to resort to fleabay if no action soon.

The pics don't do it justice, that's the problem.... some gum wall tyres would make it look more "classic" too which might help...

nice

Such a nice frame! Beaut!

If this were a 58cm, this would be in my living room right now.

Stunning looking bike, good luck with the sale.

Last chance. I've dropped the price 70.00 to 525.00.
Don't want to go to ebay, will do tomorrow if no interest.

Why is there no interest on this?

I would've bought it in a heartbeat if the funds were right.

Flip the parts and make a profit.

Bad photos... this is top end stuff and the pics are phone snaps (no offence meant).
Borrow a pals SLR, turn the dial to the flower setting and get snapping.
Little pump/tweak in PS and job done...

Part out and you will get more though.

Sold.
Thanks Mike

In true forum spirit I'm offering this beauty back to my forum brethren. It was my hipster sled during the summer weekends and, although she's absolutely gorgeous, I just don't ride her enough. Comes exactly as you see her in the photos above only minus the fluted seatpin (which cracked but you're more than welcome to).

So down to £475 she goes.

If there aren't any takers here by the weekend you'll most likely be able to find her on eBay. You can see her in the flesh in E10 should you wish. Also willing to post at cost.

Wow...

Is that sarcasm, Joe? It better not be! :)

No way! Great bike, so cheap!

lovely bike. Could I arrange a viewing tomorrow? cheers

Dibs bars if splitting.

Hey, Steedo. I'm pretty busy after work the next fews days. I know it's late but I could do 10pm tonight, Weds and Thurs if that's any use? Friday I could get back at 7.

Miglos. Will get in touch if I split. It'll probably end up on eBay complete if no one wants it here though.

nice bike

Daccordi are brilliant rides, I have a roadie...

highly recommended :D

^i have the track frame to match that road bike.

Also have the road bike to match this lovely red track one.

Must resist! Really nice build.

long shot, but would you be up for selling / swapping just the bar tape?!
Been looking for some white Benotto for a few weeks and can't find it anywhere.

Could swap for some yellow.
