It hurts a lot, but I have decided to take one bike with me only and the Merckx Corsa Extra wins... J

I am moving to the States later in the year and slowly reducing my bike collection, hence I am selling my singlespeed Colnago
It's a Colnago Master Olympic frame (58) in art deco colour sheme from late 80's/early 90's (Colnago have just reissued this frame at approx £1K)
Gios Chrome Forks
Cinelli LA84 Bars
Cinelli Stem
Cane Creek levers
Campagnolo Centaur BB
Campagnolo Veloce Chainset (42 front, 16 freewheel)
Campagnolo Centaur brakes
Campagnoo Chrous Headset
Campagnolo Athena Hubs (36) laced to Open Pro Sport Rims
Campagnolo Chorus Titanium Seatpost
Fizik Arione Saddle
Shimano spds
Continental Four Seasons TyresThe hubs were built for a screw-on freewheel. They could be used fixed but without a lockring.
It rides like a dream - it's a Colnago after all. I'm looking for £700 but may consider splitting if the right offer comes up.
I'll get more/better pics soon - contact me if you would like them.
Thanks, J -
Hi
I understand the importance of matching F+F (I have a merckx too!), but I have an old pair of Chrome Colnago forks (curved) if interested. Have been meaning to put on ebay for a while but never got around to it!

not sure - I was looking for drilled so never asked. in the end I bought some NOS GIOS forks from ebay, mostly because BLB couldn't be arsed to look downstairs for the forks I wanted and Holdsworth never got back to me after I ordered them.

I was looking for 1" chrome forks a while back. two sources I found (outside ebay) were:
- BLB have a bucket or two full of chrome forks. may be worth a look, although might all be 1"?
- Holdsworth Cycles in Putney can order direct from Reynolds - chrome 531 were about £50-60. might be worth a call to see if they can get 11/8"?

they are pretty high up... but i didn't notice a lock. I also think that, unlike a bike shop, the average member of staff won't be watching them... not that i'm condoning anything...

Hi - for anyone remotely interested, Selfridges have two Mercian-Paul Smith's hanging just inside the door by the far West entrance on Oxford St.
Regardless of what everyone thinks about the partnership, they are bloody nice and worth a look!

Blatant self-plug. I need to sell these fast ahead of moving overseas, J
