Not for sale now so won't be splitting it up. I've converted it to an 8 speed, with new stem, bars and brakes so I can use it more. May sell in the future.
Thanks.

The top tube is 53.5 cm centre to centre.
I agree the ratio is very odd, thats how it was bought in Italy, not by me though.However the chain/sporkets meant to read 53 -23. The headset is 22.3 mmand the handlebars are 24 mm.

Hi , I'll check later and get back to you. thank you

Ad updated. For sale at £420, thanks..., maybe some sleep would help. Sorry about that

Some lovely pics in this thread.
Long Surly Shadows and Coppi

Does this frame have a serial number, only asking as I have a Coppi frame without serial number, it looks like a Coppi, with a size on the bottom bracket. It has Oria tubing from around 1994. Cheers Tim

Just for a bit of fun last summer I did London to Brighton twice in a week on a 44:18 single speed Surly Streamroller. Yes had to stop 6 times on Ditchling Beacon (no pushing though) but got up Turners Hill and the complete head spin hill at Church Hill near Merstham. Probably a good way to knacker your knees for life! Thought my thighs were going to explode. Think I was riding with my nose virtually on the front wheel. Left SW18 at 5am and the ride was beautiful and quiet as I was on my own. I knew doing it would make me get a road bike (got a felt z85, sorry fixies) but I still enjoy Ricmond Park and it's hills with a fixed 48:17 gear. 44:18 was a bit of a chore on the long flat sections but got me there in the end. Enjoy the ride
