For Sale: Naked Bianchi lo pro, Nitto Njs, Parts

Bianchi Columbus EL-OS (extralight oversized) frame for sale

action shot

pantographed bb

It was described/sold to me as a lo pro and i built it with a 650 front. It rides amazingly and is ridiculously fast and pretty stiff. it also weighs nothing. however it does get a bit of toe strike as the bb is low, so i kinda think it might not be lo pro originally. Just being honest.

Heat treaded (hence the colour) Columbus EL-OS (extralight oversized)
59st Centre to TOP
56tt centre to centre
27.2 st
Tig welded junctions and brazed dropouts/brazeons

super tight clearances.
No toe overlap
was once blue then was stripped. some random blue bits left if you look close
No laquer. No rust anywhere
some dings in the top tube unfortunately.
head tube bottom has been cut down to make the front wheel clearance better. it could maybe do with a bit more tidying
bike as photographed weighs 7.7kg on a park tools scale
I can have track ends brazed on for you for £40

Lo pros are sized different. Im 5' 8" and its perfect. i ride a 55/56 road frame

Do you ride your bikes big? im 5'7 and ride a 52 :/

Im not even going to reply to this guy:

Would you post to Dublin, Ireland? I'm very interested

It's a Bianchi time trial frame or something like that. I think it originally was a lo pro because most professional road frames have a low bb and the geometry looks right with that fork.
Great looking beast! And I do think that you'll ruin it if you change to track-ends. It's worth restoring i think.

i wouldn't say so, in fact id say i ride slightly small. do a bit of searching for a lo pro size guide ;-)

yep no problem, I can post internationally

what? they broke?

nope they belong to rick, i need to give them back

threads were gone. they start moving up and down a bit, one day the bars came up when i was sprinting... i've put a longer screw with a bolt, problem was solved until the bottom threads were fucked and i gave up using it.
they're pretty heavy and solid. they won't brake but i've seen similar problems on the internet with the threads not holding it very tight so the bars start moving up and down. unless they are new or in very good condition, don't buy it.

decided to keep the frame, still looking for a look ergo stem

thread edited with sold parts removed

Such a nice frame! Seems like a pretty good decision to keep it, ha ha. Have a bump anyway.

What kind of a fucking cunt are you, anyway? You fucked me over once with the cervelo fork, didn't expect you'd have the nerve to pull this off again. Good luck shoving that bent steerer up your bleached ass, twat.
