Hi there,
Last night I had a bike I bought last week from this forum stolen in Angel. Here is the description and picture.
https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/324717/Columbus Aelle frameset, re-measured as 55cm square ctc. Circa 1990, branded "Xerro 3" on one side (stickers are removable).
The frame is made of 7 Columbus Aelle tubes, hand welded in France and is quite light. Downtube is oval / aero, which is a nice touch. The forks are cro-mo steel, made in China and are not so light.Specification:
◦Campagnolo Chorus threaded headset which is lovely (BSA threaded);◦Shimano UN55 BB in 112mm which was new last year and is still smooth (BSA threaded);
◦Sachs New Success chainset with single ring bolts, 46t TA Specialities chainring;
◦New YBN blue chain, Atom 16t freewheel (new last year), unbranded chain tensioner;
◦90mm silver quill stem and bars, wrapped in new marbled cork tape;
◦Shimano RX100 aero brake levers with good hoods;
◦Sachs Rival 7000 brakeset with new Jagwire pads at the front;
◦Front wheel has a Mavic hub on a Rigida SHP6 rim;
◦Rear wheel has a Sachs New Success hub with sealed bearings on blue Ambrosio Excellence rim. Flipped the rear axle and redished the rear wheel to optimise chainline;
◦New Vittoria Zaffiro clincher tyres in 700 x 23mm ;
◦New Retro rivet saddle in yellow.

Looking for 50cm framed bike - not too fussy with what's available as not much stock out there. Single speed or geared is fine.
Thanks
Just DMed you about meeting
