  Didn't do much digging joe - it was at the bottom of the page. Seemed pricey for a 20(?) yr old frame - albeit a colnago. Comiserations re the job by the way.

  Platini - apologies for the hashed cut & paste

  Colnago master vs. master olympic

  Any difference between the two? Looking at buying a colnago master gilco tubed early 90s - about £300. Worth it?

  My understanding is that Colnago used the Olympic suffix as a marketing tool in the early 1990s but the IOC stepped in and stopped them using it. There was no difference between the Master and the Master Olympic. The Master Piu, of the same era, differed in that the rear brake cable was routed through the top tube.

  £300 is a fair price for a frame although I'd expect it to be in pretty good condition for that price.

  Your def missing a knurled nut and set up is with the 15mm. Fine adjust with the 2mm. Could you be missing the set screws? You should be able to get by without them mind you.
