Honestly, this is one of the nicest looking set-ups I’ve ever seen on this website. Geometry, components, colour, they all just match perfectly. It’s got style but it’s not wanky at all like some other bikes I’ve seen on here. I’d be very proud to roll around on this handsome beast.
Unsure of exact year of manufacture, but would say around 1985-90, but stand to be corrected,
– Full shimano 105 - 7spd,
– Stronglight cranks,
– Charge retro saddle & bartape,
– Mavic clincher rims,
– Exage hubs seems to be
– Chromoly frame, with chromed fork & rear stays,
– Vittoria Zapfino clincher tyres,
– Elite cages…
All in all this is a well preserved bike, with barely a scratch on it (Looks like you went back in time picked it up from a bikeshop, and brought it back to the future with you)
Very nice. The photos are really nicely shot/lit too. Reminds of an old Italian hotel lobby (Which i guess was the idea)
Wow, a sexy sexy bike.
One critique though: The yellow bottle cages sort of spoil the whole package.
Lovely, bike, well shot. I think the bottle cages match the tires perfectly.
There’s an old Italian guy in North Sydney, Australia - who rides a bike similar in appearance to this one.
Frame is Italian. Old.
He has a leather, tool-kit bag hanging from the saddle, which could make a nice addition if you come across one, casci.
Not my style, but I appreciate the romantic elegance you have achieved, very much.
Well done.
