Greetings, CR Mates---
Up for sale is my 1960 Ideor Asso Olimpic frameset. Photos show a complete bike but only the frame, fork, headset, seatpost collar and bottom bracket are included in the sale.
Asking $275 SHIPPED (lower 48) OBO. Paypal only, please, to pjourdain@yahoo.com
Serial #344907. Came from California, so probably a Montrose Bike Shop machine back in the day. I purchased it about 4 year ago. Early Columbus tubing. No dents or dings, but the flamboyant paint is faded and worn, and the chrome is gone. The decals are there except for the main seat tube stripes and logo. A great riding frame, light for its size, that sparks a lot of questions and comments. Has tons of personality, what some folks call "stank," and would be a great L'Eroica candidate. Campy dropouts fore and aft, Italian threading (of course). Rear spacing 120mm. Braze-on downtube shifter bosses.
This frameset includes the original Ideor-branded seatpost collar clamp and a non-original NOS Campy Sport headset (paid $90 for it) which was required for its low stack height. HS has about 100 miles on it. Also includes a non-original Italian cottered bottom bracket set-up for double cranks. The cranks are old, rusty and crooked, so I'll have them removed. Takes a 26.2" seatpost.
Seat tube is 64cm c-t-c, top tube is 62cm c-t-c, chainstays are 44.5cm.

PLEASE NOTE: It will take me a couple of extra days before I ship this, as I have to get my mechanic to pull the cotter pins on the cranks. I don't have a press and don't want to do the old "hammer job" on this.
Thanks!
