Hello listmembers. I have for sale a Celo Europa "Celo Super" frame + fork. Seat tube is 55cm c to c, top tube is also 55cm c to c. I believe Celo Europa framesets were made by Colnago for Marcel Calborn's bike shop in California. I do not know what specific Colnago model the Celo Super corresponds to, but this is a very nicely finished lightweight frame. "Celo" engraving in the fork crown, lower head tube lug, rear brake bridge, and seatstay caps, "C" cutout in bottom bracket shell, Campy dropouts. Color is similar to Bianchi "celeste" with some metallic sparkle. I would call the condition very good, there are some paint chips and scratches but little rust (seatpost and stem moved fine). No dents, frame is straight and fork is not bent. Check out the pictures, I have tried to show all major chips and scratches. Decals in good condition. I will include the two bolt Campagnolo seatpost with "Celo" panto, and the Gipiemme BB and Suntour headset currently on the bike (both of these need to be overhauled). $300 obo. Would also consider trade for a 57-58ish cm cyclocross frame.

I also have for sale a single 32H shimano 600/Araya front wheel. Grey anodized rim, hub is in fantastic cosmetic conditon. Smooth spinning hub, rim is true. Some corrosion on eyelets. A little brake wear but plenty of life left. $30 obo.

I would love to work out a trade or trade + cash for a black Turbo saddle, perforated or not, in good used condition, as this would be the perfect finishing touch for my Recherche. I have a white Rolls saddle in good used condition that I could throw in the trade as well as the items above.

Shipping price is my cost by UPS for the United States, international shipping is no problem either and once again at my cost. Money order would be best for payment, I don't like Paypal. Of course, if you're in the Phoenix area you're welcome to come by and take a look.
