Absolutely beautiful and in excellent condition. Well maintained and lovingly cared for by previous owner. Is not new but could pass as if it were. Colors are bright and vibrant and so well done!

Only mark I could find on this pristine frame and fork is a small (3mm) light chip on the downtube above where the right downtube shifter would be. Seller to me believes it was made when handlebars were free to turn to the right when in a workstand and brake caliper lightly contacted the downtube.

The frame and fork were built in 1989. The seat tube is 53cm c-c with 73.33 seat tube angle and 54.3cm top tube.

Tubing: Columbus TSX Lugs: Investment cast bridgeless bottom bracket shell, flat fork crown, and lug set Dropouts: Campagnolo Braze-ons: Front derailleur, downtube shift lever bosses, internal top tube rear brake cable guide, 2 water bottle mounts, pump peg, and chain hanger Chrome: Chainstays, dropouts, and fork tips Color: Blue Cobalto

$750 plus shipping and insurance. Pictures available upon request.

Thanks,
