Looked but can’t find the details of the guy who sourced them for me Have you written to SRAM? Avid ? I remember I was after a part for a Mavic headset and mavic sent me a brand new complete headset for free! Might be worth contacting them

Hi yes Someone sold me a whole spares set but I’ve since sold the brakes I’ll try and dig in the messages to see who it was

Would be a huge upgrade

to be honest I didn't weigh it. It was light but didn't seem as light as the Ti Megatube one. The Ti one is extremely rare. I've only ever seen about 3.

Yes, I had that one too! https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/bianchi-nth-reparto-corse-columbus-genius-1996.454356/

If you decide you don't want it and would consider selling to me do let me know!! hehe!!;)

Looks very nice! The stem and bar are the cherry on the cake

thanks Seems the newer (Geko) version was made from Columbus XLR8 Scandium with modified geometry and more travel at the back. Also a Downhill version called the Frank

Question, is this steel or alloy? or a combo? Seem to be various versions, a newer model with a different rear linkage and triangle/drop out also another Downhill And selling??;)

Yes I think so https://ebay.us/m/mBofoe How’d anyone manage to crack a steel frame like that ? Must’ve done an Evil Knievel type jump

Sorry to resurrect this There’s a Scapin Columbus steel frame on sale on eBay which has cracks in the head tube Is this weld fixable ? Or a lost cause ? I think lost but thought I’d just ask

Yea sorry that catalogue I think was 97 not 96. Or was it 98?? I’d have to double check.

Or maybe it’s a resprayed one if these ( courtesy of @mtbkez ) as it has no Canti hanger mount on the rear as the custom catalogue ones do

I’m sure it was from this catalogue - possibly
