Completely rebuilt by me so brand new cables and outers. All working well!

It breaks my heart to let this go, but moving house to a smaller one means I'm having to thin out the collection. n-1 at the moment...

56x56cm Basso Fior di Loto made from 'superlight' tubing (Columbus SLX). This was the top of the range racing frame around 1989, it really is awesome. Lots of nice details which show quality (seat cluster, panto).

Ultegra 6600 shifters (10 speed),
105 mechs,
Ultegra rear wheel, 105 front,
Ultegra brake callipers,
105/cx50 crankset 50/34 rings,
Carbon seat post,
Colnago titanium railed saddle,
Deda bars, Cinelli stem.
Schwalbe Blizzard puncture proof tyres.

The best thing about this bike is that despite being a racing frame, it will comfortably take mudguards with 25c or even 28c tyres. It's basically the perfect bike for crap roads. This is what's made it so hard to decide to sell it, but needs must :cry:

The frame has some marks but is absolutely sound.

Weighs 10kg as built.

I'm after £300 posted for this, which I think is a good price all parts considered. Could also arrange collection in York/Leeds.

Slight rethink on price - really need this gone.

I would also consider splitting (will only split if frameset goes).
Something like:

Frameset £130
Shifters £50
Wheels £45
Rear mech £15
Front mech £10
Callipers £25
Crankset £35
Saddle £20
Bars £10
Stem £15
Open to offers on the plastic pedals.
 
Can I get back to you tomorrow when it's light? I expect it'll be 56cm.

Hopefully someone buys this soon before I decide to keep it. Teetering right now.
