Re:

It doesn't look like a Cinelli but it will be of half decent quality if the builder decided to use a Cinelli bottom bracket shell and Columbus drop outs so a good project for someone. GLWS.

Re: Unknown (Cinelli?) Columbus frame 59cm £120

Thanks, I half suspect this bike could be worth much much more, but as I can't identify it, just thought I'd move it on. Just want to cover my cost of making it road worthy (did have to replace original 7 speed 105 seperate rear cogs with a cheaper Shimano 8 speed cassette, works fine using friction setting.). And as hinted at I have resprayed it to preserve frame, but if I could keep it would be worth more professional finish. I bought it unseen from a retro bike friend, but I guess he thought my legs were longer than they are, shame...

Re:

When I took ownership, the original paintwork was long gone, unfortunately, just a poor repaint. I did try gently taking it back to attempt to reveal any original decals etc, but couldn't find any so have just resprayed, sorry.
