Seams like a lot of German sellers only want's to send within Germany and have no interest in selling to anybody else, even though we are right over the boarder. The main excuss from most of my inquieries,.......bad International deals!........OH WELL!..............Their.....$$$.....lost!

Anyway we picked up about 12 single colored Chesini X-UNO framesets from the Benelux dealer in several different sizes...............And they all have the engraved headtubes..........We're holding them over until we can have them refinished with period correct paint and graphics.
