For Sale: Piero Zurino complete bike, Italian Losa frame

I'm posting this on behalf of a friend. I can vouch for all, I've seen and tried the bike and it's really an amazing machine. Check out below.

Piero Zurino, Losa frame. It has chromed seat/chain stays, seat tube, bb shell and seat lug, full chrome fork. Campagnolo dropouts, columbus sl (decals were very dry and fell apart the first time it was washed). It is a very light frame (around 1.6kg, fork around 0.68g).
This a rare bike, i have only found photos of another like this one.

I have a Jpeg with the decals, so it´s easy to have replicas made. The frame has some superficial rust, nothing bad but it would benefit a lot from a respray, there are some scratches all around, there is a small ding on the top of the bb shell, merely cosmetic. The chrome is fine.

The frame is straight, the wheels are true. This is a fast and light bike, can easily be made into a climber with just minor gear changes.

See all photos for details.
