What do you think, good buy? price is circa £450
 
And now it´s mine! Really nice preserved frame, and group

Incl. clamps, computer (cateye), pump, tire iron and 2 tubes. All for £364.

:D
 
Very handsome machine at a great price. What tubeset is the Stelvio?
 
Dedacciai Dolmen. Not high class but good enough for riding.

Gonna put White bar tape and saddle on it + White outer cable housing.
 
EVERYONE used to race on these in Denmark in the mid 90s before alloy became widespread, back when Heino was the importer.

There was me on my Wilier 7020 against a peloton of guys on these with Ultegra or Chorus. I nearly ordered one for myself but didn't want to be on the same steed as everyone else!

Very nice frames though. Yours seems to have become a little faded. Proprietary Pinarello Tubeset was around SLX/Genius level IIRC.
 
IRL. the paint is almost mint, there is a few chips in it around the fork ends that´s it, not faded at all. Previous owner rode it for 500km and then put it in the shed. I think he´s discomfort with the bike relates to the long stem (130mm) I´m 183cm, and it´s way to long for me.

When I change what I want to change, i´ll post in the Readers Road Bike section.
