A perfect example of bicycle as art. 1978 Masi Prestige, repainted in emerald green with copper accents. 56 cm c - t, 56 cm top tube. Campagnolo headset. Very nice Imron paint, with only a few light nicks. These were the Italian-made Masis, while the rest were made in California.

Campagnolo Super Record cranks: 170 mm arms. 52 teeth in front, 16 on rear freewheel. Light wear on chainring and arms.

Campagnolo Super Record brakes. New brown gumhoods. Light wear on levers, spotless calipers.

Campagnolo high-flange hubs, 36 hole, laced to Mavic rims, the rear redished for a perfectly straight chainline. New silver chain. Green Vittoria tires.

Nitto moustache handlebars wrapped in Viva cotton bartape and shellacked a deep copper. Nitto Technomic Deluxe stem to jack up the bars to a comfortable height.

New Brooks Professional, green with hand-hammered copper rivets. New MKS Sylvan touring pedals. Matching Campagnolo pump! I'll be posting it on Ebay this Sunday, but thought I'd try the locals first. Trades for bikes of comparable value, 58 cm, considered. Call Matt at 510-848-1001.
