For Sale: A Colnago from my own stable

Circa '91-92
Colnago Super Pui
56.5cm c-t
53.5cm top tube
Dura Ace 7400 Aero seat post
Dura Ace 7400 Headset, nos when fitted
Dura Ace 7700 gears, brakes, drive and hubs
Mavic CXP 33 rims
Rolls saddle
Colnago Bar tape
I am selling it as it is too small for me.
Rides absolutely faultlessly.
I had initially thought that it was a Spiral Conic, and is decaled so,
but I am more drawn towards it being a super pui.
Originally had DA7401 group, but right shifter was gone, so I upgraded
to 7700, like my Lux Dream, which had 7700 as team issue.
I find the 7700 group less noisy than the 7800
The paint scheme is a marbled black, which haa turned to black in a couple of places.
It's not cheap in these times of austerity I'm afraid, but (in my opinion), the price is fair.

cheers

the top tube looks longer than the seat tube in the picture - is it really a 53.5 top tube?

yes, 53.5
I've found there is normally 2cm dif between c-t and tt measurements with steel colnagos,
as I said, I'm only selling as after long rides I get a sore base of spine, if the tt was longer, I'd keep it

an aside
if it is a super pui -columbus sl
if spiral conic-slx
in some quarters, sl is more revered than slx as it is lighter

(i read somewhere)

an aside.2

I initially thought it was spiral when I saw these pics
http://gs78.photobucket.com/groups/j100/8NX4RIIB2E/
same lugging detail, non-crimped down tube
other images I've seen of spirals have a 'spiral conic' decal on the top tube, and of course,
the much heralded
wait for it
4 crimped down tube

here's a link to a Columbus steel guide (thickness, weights etc)

this is gorgeous - but I think a bit big for me - I'm five seven, do you agree?

got of a staunch Gentleman of 70 years young, who told me he got of a buckler team member, was raced, and he was only parting with it as he'd decided he wanted to ride upright henceforth
Bottle cage bolt head had sheared orf so had it withdrawn

when handling fine work, it's good to behave like Gentlemen
if your interested in the ESA, pm please,

Thanks
