Condition judgements - elaborate

[legrandefromage]

The Canondale is concours, perfect, mint, absolutely better than it came from the factory superclean:

10 or a 10a

The Casati unfortunately blows the rating system out of the water just on attention to detail alone.

11..

I thought the same as LGF but the Casati's tyres look knackered to me so I would drop that back down to a 10 - but then I would only buy a bike to ride and they are probably very period correct which might be worth more to a horder... sorry I meant collector

I would simply call the 'Dale excellent and the Casati perfect! Or I suppose 9 and 10 respectively.

 

[Shamus]

I would say 9- for Casati and 9 for Cannondale

OK, this is hard one...seller says it´s NOS, never ridden!

He says it has never ridden and maybe it hasn't, but it does like it could have been ridden: Dust on back calliper, f-mech made changes, decals tt peeled off, some chips ...among a little more. It is not bad, but it falls short for NOS.

Triomphe is not so top kit for a Mexico btw.
