Wow. As I'm sure you've found out, they were not a production model and are extremely rare...and one's missing a fork, because I have it.
Would love to see some more pictures of this. Are the Columbus decals on the fork 'Air' or just the normal 'Forcella'?
-
Phwoar. Do you know what model/year that is?
-
New wheels; H Plus Son TB14 rims laced to 8 speed Chorus hubs.

More like Grandfather/Grandson reunited!

Wow, don't get it dirty!
What model is that? Looks early 80's with the old style fork crown.
-
You know what, you're right. To be honest I've never had any reason to suspect they were anything other than SL tubes, but comparing mine to regular Pinarello forks (from around '85,) they certainly have a lot more pronounced 'aero' shape, particularly at the crown.
That's kinda cool...I feel a bit stupid that you picked that up just by looking at my crappy photos!
Doesn't seem to be much info about Columbus Air out there, do you know when they stopped making it?
-
Not Air, just SL, (frame is SLX,) but they were still hard to find! Ended up getting them from Serbia, of all places.
-
Ah, cheers. Yeah new/old fork, frame stripped, chromed, painted, decals and clear coat. (Following on from posts #3 & #13 above.)

Finished for now
This has been a long time coming...
