I'm posting this on behalf of a friend. I can vouch for all, I've seen and tried the bike and it's really an amazing machine. Check out below.

Piero Zurino, Losa frame. It has chromed seat/chain stays, seat tube, bb shell and seat lug, full chrome fork. Campagnolo dropouts, columbus sl (decals were very dry and fell apart the first time it was washed). It is a very light frame (around 1.6kg, fork around 0.68g).
This a rare bike, i have only found photos of another like this one.

I have a Jpeg with the decals, so it´s easy to have replicas made. The frame has some superficial rust, nothing bad but it would benefit a lot from a respray, there are some scratches all around, there is a small ding on the top of the bb shell, merely cosmetic. The chrome is fine.

The frame is straight, the wheels are true. This is a fast and light bike, can easily be made into a climber with just minor gear changes.

See all photos for details.

TM has first dibs on everything, Jere has second dibs on stem+bars.

you will never be fair to everyone.

but I can try.

Was the PM before those posts?

nope. you have first dibs on those parts, TM.

Good call Dom, them wheels be lovely.

Got a price for post/stem/bars?

I will post prices for post, stem and bars tomorrow. are you putting dibs on them? I'm asking because I already got dibs over PM from another user and I want to be fair to everyone.

I was thinking about keeping it for myself, but if you really want it I guess I can let it go for £35 + shipping

ok, i worked out some prices:

wheels: £230
(tubes are new, rear tire has less than 100 and front one less than 500 miles)
hubs were bought new (still have the boxes that I will send to the buyer), rims and hoshi spokes were NOS at the time of build. they have been used for less than 500 miles.

crankset: £100
this was bought from 8pilgrim, a well known japanese ebay seller for NJS parts. it is used, has some minor scratches but otherwise has very nice presentation.
size is 167.5mm. threads and tapers excellent.

47T chainring: £39
NJS stamped dura ace. used but very low miles, no shark fins, no broken teeth. plenty of life left in it.

16T cog: £9
from 8pilgrim. used but with very low miles.

lockring: £12
this is a rare chrome plated (keirin) lockring, not the usual anodized version. used but in excellent nick as well.

IZUMI chain: £12. to the buyer who takes the complete chainset I will throw the chain for free.

I will take paypal, but with a 3% increase to cover the comission. otherwise I accept IBAN transfers.
shipping not included. to Europe it should be fair - our post does a nice flat rate of registered shipping to european countries on packages below 2Kg.
the wheelbox will go over 2Kg so it should be around 20/25 to ship to UK/Europe. I need to confirm this before shipping.

I would buy it if it were 2cm bigger ):

Please could I dibs the seatpost pending a split/price?

Yes you may dibs, thanks.

BTW, user DOM has already first dibs (he PM'd me shortly after posting the sale) on the following parts, pending prices:

Wheels
Chainset
Chain tensioners
TT protector
Cog and lockring
Chain

I'll think of some numbers and will update the original post on in due time.

£1300 for repainted bike by M.Vaz plus postage from Portugal ?????????

sadly, it was painted white when I bought the frameset. the original paintjob was already lost, otherwise I would never repainted it.

anyhow, nuknow and vaz tried to match the original LOOK team yellow. the colour is very nice and changes a bit according to daylight/artificial light.

yes, you both are probably right... I will accept an offer near the 1000 mark for it complete, plus postage.

otherwise, I will split it next week.

Nice but pricey

yes I know, but it is totally worth it.

there are shitloads of frames nowadays being sold, that are not half near the quality of this one. and most of them are more expensive.

Was this the one Nuknow got painted?

yes it is!

sorry!

size is 55cm c-to-c square.

Anyone know of a retailer other than SJS who sell the Soma HWY One bars in Europe? Tried to UTFS, but couldn't find anything, and SJS charge £35 for international delivery!

I'd like to know this too... I'm in Lisbon (which is almost just across the english channel) and SJS wants £24 just for s&h which is a bit insane.

thanks.

ditch the car. keep the bike.

Hello!

Is this still available? Can I see pictures? Flickr isn't working for me...

Thanks.

I have a B17 Narrow with no more than 100 miles in and a B17 Champion Special with a bit more miles and some scuffs.

Both brown with black rails. Both taken good care of, with proper proofide applied. The Champion has, of course, copper rivets.

PM if interested for prices and photos.
