Hello all Legnano enthusiasts- So here's a link to my Flicker photo set of the bike I just got. I stayed up late last night cleaning it off. Took the photos just an hour ago.
Some basic info on it. Size is 54cm (c-c), 27.2 post that fits well. TT is 55.5cm (c-c). Universal 61s, rear brake reach is about 5mm greater then the front's. 170 cranks, inner surface has bulge at the axle hole, with 45-52 rings. Pat 71 rear der. TTT bars and stem (that is very beat up). 36* hi flange hubs laced to a Fiamme Red rear (very beat up) and a Yellow label front that looks like it never was used. The bike has a 531 sticker, a style that would match the early 70s I believe.
As you will see the bike has seen better days. I bought it off a rough looking guy, it was his get around bike. The chrome is in good shape. There's lots of rust on the BB shell and scattered about. A poor brush on touch up has been done here and there, luckily not too much of the decals and bands are effected. The decals have some chips, flake offs but most are in good shape. The stem has had dulling of the shine and some corrosion around the quill's bolt head. Unfortunately the brake levers have been swapped for a RGC Campy copy.
Enjoy the view!
