For Sale: Vintage Chesini Gran Premio Road Bike - Winter / Touring / Training - Large!

Hello!

Sadly selling this very well built (early 90's..?) Chesini Gran Premio road bike. Made in Verona, Italy.

Stamped head tube (a roman colosseum in Verona in the background...), seat stays and fork crown. Chesini written on the dropouts front and rear. Drop out adjuster screws.

Slotted BB shell with cast cable guides. Stamped 62 on BB.

Braze ons for mudguards front and rear. 2 x bottle cage fittings.

Frame material is Accaio Al Carbonios 0.10. This is a large frame - 62 as marked. The seat tube is 62 cm c-c / 64 cm c-t. Top tube 60 cm c-c. I guess to suit from around 6"0 to 6"5 give or take....

There are a few chips here and there (especially on the top tube) but it still looks fantastic in the original paint - viewing obviously very welcome. Will endeavor to upload some better photos...

Components -

New KMC chain
New cables
New seatpost
New Specialized All condition 700x25 tyres
New front brake pads
New crank bolts
New seatpin binder bolt
NOS Rolls saddle snakeskin (kinda)

RSX 8 Speed STI with 105 rear mech. RX100 Cranks. RX100 calipers. Super tough Vuelta Stylus wheelset (barely used) with Joytech hubs. 36 spoke front and rear... ITM Race Pro Bars and very very dark blue (matches the paint) quill stem.

I was planning to use this as a touring bike in the spring but change of plan means its up for sale. Feels really nice to ride - even though its a big bike it feels pretty light and is very smooth and responsive to ride - anyway sorry to go on - only thing this needs is the gears dialing in to make perfect - otherwise good to go.

Prob have some bottle cages and guards I can throw in too.

Any enquiries welcome - just pm me.
