Very tidy and presentable, had little use and not been in a crash etc. Original screws and washers, threads all fine and working. Still has the inspection sticker on the inside. Some very light signs of insertion to about 170mm below seat rails but not very noticeable, the paint is all...

"Cakes, not brakes" the motto of all good cyclists.

Wow! What a good-looking bike. Modern mountain bikes generally don't look attractive to me at all but this is very elegant and understated whilst still looking functional and fast. A great colour, too (the most important bit!). I'm not in the market for an mtb but this would be on my...

@Lucidone From looking at yer man's posts (all seem to be For Sale), he has mentioned collection from Sunderland, so you might be safe if you are still in Bicester...

Very nice, I see it has mudguard and rear rack eyes that make it a good commuter or winter frame. A pity that the market means that perfectly fine frames such as this have to be almost given away. Good luck.

Need a price, as per posting rules. Can have 'or nearest offer' if you like.

Unsurprisingly, sold for the asking price of £160.

Complete bargain for a lovely frame and all the kit on it. Nice description by the seller, a real change from most adverts. This will soon be gone, especially being in that size.

I should have been more specific as I'd seen 'Wales' in your name-box (whatever it's called) and wondered if you were anywhere near me in the north-west of Wales. I've a pair of XC717 rims laced with DT double-butted spokes to XT hubs (731, maybe?). If you are heading up north then I'd be...

Whereabouts are you, @Grannygrinder ?

Best to post in this thread with a few photos, at least one that shows the whole bike on the drive-side and others that highlight any unusual or interesting details. Also write any info you have about the bike, its history etc.

@SirCrisp Might be worth taking the D175 to a small (one-man-band type) engineering workshop and ask if they could copy it but - obviously - with the correct holes. Certainly worth a shot, keep the bike going. Good luck and let us know how you get on.

I don't know about Colnago items per se, but it would be odd thing to fake, the box at least as it looks well-printed.

Needs a firm price (can have 'or nearest offer' or similar) not 'over £ x'.

If it's for commuting then presumably you'll be on wet roads at least some of the time so it's well-worth having proper mudguards and fittings. A rear rack is also worthwhile for carrying stuff in a pannier, much more comfortable than a rucksack. I'm sure you'll find something, there are loads...

Agreed, they are one of my favourite bikes for their looks. I usually prefer simple, classic, understated paintjobs - rare in the pro bikes of the last 25+ years due to the necessity of advertising and sponsorship - but the Mapei Quick-Step Colnagos managed to look elegant even with the...

Full-on race or more relaxed geometry, braze-ons for mudguards and racks, gearing (3x, 2x,1x), disc or rim brakes etc? Postage required? To Surrey?

Bargain. I'd always wanted one after using them at various places I lived or stayed and was about to buy earlier this year when, by good fortune, I was given one that was going to be scrapped because one of the elements had died. Seems mad but it was cheaper for this place to buy a new toaster...

If you're nearby and after this sort of stuff then, for £55, not seeing the drive-side wouldn't be a big deal. Looks like some decent parts: his 'n' hers San Marco Regal (I think) saddles, both with those useful bags that are becoming harder to find, Zefal frame pump, plus there has to be some...

@chickendrumsticks has braze-ons fot mudguard and rear rack (can't tell if front rack also) so possibly auadax or light tourer? Nice-looking bike.
