For Sale: Small 49cm Track Frameset - BLB 'La Piovra' Classic Pista - New Gold Paint / Headset

~~Hi Everyone,

I have a small track frameset for sale. These don't come up for sale often, especially fully refurbed.

CSB>
History: This was Mrs Stonehedge (5ft4) daily ride since 2010. I have completely refurbished it for one reason only: I wanted to know what the gold powdercoat was like in the flesh and I am really happy with it. it looks awesome in the sunshine.
<CSB

It has been powdercoated in 'Pearl Gold' then lacquered by Armoutex this week, I have just fitted a brand new Tange headset with sealed bearings and some fresh Columbus stickers. No dents or dings, it is ready to be built!

Measurements are as follows:
Seat tube = 49cm CTC
Head tube = 51cm CTC

The frameset takes 700c wheels and has an horizontal top tube when built.

The sale includes:

• Frame - 2010 Columbus Thron steel, italian BB shell, Brand new powdercoat RAL1036+Gloss lacquer, new sticker, BLB dropouts & chain tensioners (not in picture)
  
• Forks - Flat crown, Columbus Thron steel, BSA threading, Brand new powdercat RAL1036+Gloss lacquer, new stickers
  
• Headset - Tange 1" sealed headset, black, 5mm carbon spacer - both brand new.
  
• Seatpost - BLB Track seat post in black and Cr-Mo steel bolt
  
• Bottom Bracket - 2 Shimano italian thread BB included in the deal, Dura-Ace 7700 Octalink 109.5mm and UN54 113mm square taper.
  
  
  

BLB sells the frameset alone for £589 and seatpost for £22.
I have paid £75.75 for the powdercoat, £29.95 for the headset, £4.99 for the stickers, £20 to get the headtube reamed and cups pressed so that's £130 in the last week.
I am also including 2 bottom brackets in the sale.

I am after £250 SOLD! for the lot, it is all kept at my work in Chancery Lane so please come and have a look at it.

Cheers

Vince
