Pinarello Treviso from 1990-1991 ish in Columbus SL.

Unfortunately when I got it, it wasn’t in such good nick – the decals had flaked, and the chrome was rather shabby. I got it stove-enamelled by Vernon Barker in plain (Ferrari-ish) red. I’m afraid I’ve not got any “before” photos to prove the frame’s provenance, but you can still see all the pantographing etc.
It’s in good nick structurally (no dents etc), but there are some chips/scratches from locking up etc. No puppy killing, it’s still got all its braze-ons. The headset is similar to this:

I’m not well-up enough on old Campag to tell you precisely what model. It’s not perfectly smooth (there’s a bit of pitting to the races), but it’s a bit rough rather than indexed steering. I've just given it a service.
BB is again old Campag, cup and cone rather than cartridge.
Cranks old Campag like these:

Again, I’m not sure what model, they’re road cranks with a single ring (Campag Veloce 9 speed, 39t). I may well have another ring that would fit; I’ll have a look through my spares and see what I’ve got.
Chain is a pretty basic 1/8” job, in white. I’ll include some spare links for it.
Fixed sprocket, basic, 16t. No freewheel, but the rear wheel will accept one.
No pedals (I'm keeping the SPDs in the pics).
The wheels are Mavic Open Sport, 36h, silver. System EX double-fixed hub rear, Maillard loose-ball front, both high-flange. Spokes are DB stainless. Tyres are Michelin Krylion folders, all black, 23c.
The cockpit comprises a Zenith Grand Compe stem:

Brev M risers (white) and flangeless grips (red, a bit like Ourys).

Braking is by way of a Shimano 105 calliper, single pivot, silver. The lever is a custom bent Dia Compe Tech 77 (a la Gold Finger/Dirty Harry).
It’s not currently got a seatpost (takes 27.2) or saddle. I have got a crabon fribé post that would fit, but to be honest it doesn’t really go with the frame from an aesthetic point of view. It’s also currently missing a seat binder bolt.
I’ve a couple of Brooks saddles that I could sell if that’s of any interest.
Pricewise, I’m asking £230 posted to mainland UK (I’m in Sheffield). This would be everything except seat binder bolt, seatpost or saddle.
+£10 for shabby Brooks (I can’t remember if it’s a Competition or Professional)
+£25 for good condition Brooks B17
+£10 for the crabon seatpost

Dibs on the thread will mean nothing to me, PMs only please. Any questions, just ask...
