That bike soooooooo nice! You lucky swine!

Not bad for £800 and looks in fantastic nick as well.

Thanks for the tips guys, I live south of the river so any of those could be good.

Hopefully a couple of leg locks and a few pile drivers will sort me out and get me back on my bike ;-)

Preferably with some knowledge of cycling/sports related injuries?

I've been getting some discomfort in my knees for quite some time now. I read through some of the previous posts on here, all good advice but I've been off the bike for over three weeks now and the pain doesn't seem to want to shift. So I went to an osteopath near where I work in Old Street but she seemed really flaky and did a no show for my second appointment today so i won't be going back there again!

Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated.

That's sad news! I used to love skating Harrow back in the day.

My dad bought me this book called Cycling's Golden Age, loads of great photographs and memorabilia.
Anyways this pic of Coppi at the 1952 Paris 6 day caught my eye, so I thought I'd share...

The guy in Italy just sent me some more pics of another frame he's got. This one is a low pro frame, he didn't mention the make and I can't make it out from the images but it looks in good condition.

Anyone recognize the frame make? It looks like it says 'Power Black' to me on the top tube?
Its got a Campy Record BB and a gipiemme headset.
He wants €250 for everything aside from the wheels!!

^fork crown is crude-looking?

Really? How so?
The chrome has some pitting but nothing that a good polish wouldn't fix.
It looks very similar to this lovely Colnago Super Track

3rdworldsuitcase £350 all included thats my opinion.haggle barter do what yah can.nice frames.As he got pics of him racing the races love that kind of thing.

€350 Euros so about £275

dogsballs 58cm will be a tad small for you i'd say. buy them all, then sell them on ebay over here. postage will be roughly £30-35 per frame.

the colnago looks like a mid to mid-bottom range track frame probably 70's.

Yeah, I have thought about just buying all three and selling the ones I don't want or don't fit. I should think I'd easily cover the costs.
I presume being a Colnago even if it is a mid range frame its still going to have pretty good build quality.. it looks like its got a Columbus tubing sticker?
He said he was going to send me some more pics today of the other frames so I'll post them up when he does see what people think?

Hi!
I've been lurking on here on and off for quite a while now. I converted on old Bob Jackson road frame last year and learnt loads in the process mainly thanks to info and advice from this site (and Sheldon's of course) and have been hooked ever since! So I want to start a new project and build up a classic (70's) Italian track bike. I've been looking on ebay for a while now and missed out on a few frames which went for serious top dollar. Anyway I've managed to get in touch with a guy in Italy who use to race in the 70's and 80's and he's got a few frames that he's looking to sell.
The first one he sent me details of is a Colnago which he says is 58cm, now I'm 6 foot 2 and a bit, with fairly long legs, my Bob Jackson is a 60cm and my geared bike is a 61cm. I know track geometry means you can ride a smaller frame but would those few cms difference be too much of a drop?
Here are some pics he sent me. The paint job looks a bit knackered but he tells me the frame is otherwise in good nick.He wants €350 for it which doesn't include the postage from Italy... so what do people think... good deal? Any advice would be much appreciated.

He tells me he's got two other frames as well, one is a 59cm Vicini and the other is a Lo-Pro time trial frame which he thinks is a 60cm, but I'm waiting for him to send over some pics.
