Wtd Bottecchia 58,59 or 60cm pref SLX or similar

[Leatherseat]

Hi,

Rather an optimistic request.

I am seeking a Bottecchia frame with or without forks, or a complete bike.
Sizes - between 58 and 60 cm (centre to centre), (Imay consider a 57 or 61 dependent on top tube length).

Preferences - some or all of the following -
a) with the 'script' writing,
b) red, red/white
c) slx, tsx, spx tubing.

What have you got ?
Or - any suggestions of possible places to look? (I've been scouring E-bay for a long time).

Cash or p/ex - Newly refurb'ed Merckx Corsa Extra (by Mercian), or Tune Hubbed rear wheel (775gms - Campag free hub) etc.


Thanks,

David

Hi Cipolinni,

Thanks for the offer, but I'm specifically after a (script) Bottecchia.

Regards,

David

My search has just become more urgent, sadly.

I have been pottering about over the holiday, doing a short term refurb of my old Bottecchia, to use it as a short run errand bike. Today I have discovered a crack/ hole running around 40% of the lower part of the NDS seat stay. Sadly this doesn't inspire confidence so it is for the scrap heap.

Happy new year,

David
