that is a bit extraordinary , this is a more down to earth listing

If you look at the item history, this is the NINTH time the guy has tried to sell it to no avail. He cites 'frame issue's in response to the reason why.

Like I said, a good clean twin Carbitubo frame - £800-1000

Tony Rominger took his through three teams, sticking two fingers up to the 'Management ' and only agreeing to repaint it after a lot of huffing.
I saw him riding the SAME bike at his Rominger Classic from Vevey to Crans Montana in 2006 and he was still tanking it along ')

Close up of the twin down tube design.

Thanks! The twin down tube and the elegance of the thing usually gets an appreciative crowd wherever it goes.

It's 57 square, i.e. 57cm x57 cm

NOW SOLD

57 cm square Carbitubo. The frame was acquired from an ex German National Team rider. They were painted in a set of six by Colnago for the team. Uwe Ampler rode one of these!

The paint its pretty much immaculate. No dings or serious chips. The photos tell the story. Campagnolo Record carbon 10 spd groupset, including headset. Shamal Titanium HPW 10 spd wheels. New Flite saddle, Cinelli bars and stem. A no expense spared build. It's a joy to ride and Tony Romingers favourite frame of all time! Colnago panto on nearly every lug and frame fitting, all picked out in pukka gold leaf. Arrival of a C40 project forces sale, that and the fact that her indoors has a strict 'one in/one out' policy on bicycles :)

Groupset/wheels and finishing kit cost over £1400. Good clean frames like this one sell £800-1000.

£1600 will post within EU.

See above for a lower spec version from Italy with a bog standard paint job (£1800):

The wheels et al by post, will post at cost no probs (£10 the wheels)

Record carbon front mech now £45

To answer a few general queries from pm's:

These are for 27"x1" or 1 and 1/4" tyres. The hub is screw on British thread at 126mm oln the front is standard 100mm. The wheels were totally rebuilt with stainless steel spokes, about 10 months ago, less than 400km since then and the brake tracks are perfect with almost no visible wear. Correct curved lever Campagnolo skewers front and rear. They are like new wheels basically, but vintage. Perfect for any 50/60/70's frame. New but still essentially old ! If you get my drift !!

And the seat pin was stuck!!!

I bought an 80's comp and was disappointed to see a French bracket in there. Cost me 45 notes to put a new one in it!

Same goes for new forks - I always get them cut exactly to size.

Proper vintage carbon classic, and a good price too. Shame my shed is full ')

These are old school 126mm oln.

Sold

Hobbers has first dibs on it, will keep you posted. Interest noted!

I commute on a busy four lane section for about 2.5 miles of the journey. At least once a week in the ludicrously complicated series of junctions I'll cock it up and upset a driver. This normally results in them having to wait at the lights ten seconds normal than usual.

When motorists cock it up on this section, the results have been A. Broken clavicle for me B. Smashed up faced for a girl coming off the cycle track that runs into it and C. A fatality of a pedestrian last November in heavy rain.

Bad motorists are hugely more dangerous than a bad cyclist ever is.

PM sent Hobbers.

Can post anywhere in the UK for £20 insured.

Stick it on eBay International, £1599 fixed price. You'll sell it in less than a day, always a very strong international demand for nice Supercorsa bikes/frames.

Maserati 3200?

Talk to me. Lemme tickle you. Lemme tickle you. I'll put my little index finger under your chin, give it a little wiggly wig, and you'll say "Terry, I'll take 18 grand, thank you very much and good night."

I have no political opinions on the matter ;)

Personally though I'd rather invest in a nice bike than an LDN shoebox.
Every bubble bursts!

Well, now's the best time to buy. I've a pal in Vintage and Collectibles who's observed the steady creep of Scottish Art and silver in the anticipation of a likely YES vote in September. Pretty certain Flying Scot bikes will go the same road when that Tartan fever kicks in after September 18th. Same thing happened in southern Ireland.

Fill yer boots!
