They show up like everything else on (at least European) eBay from time to time. But you have to be aware that the kits itself are all identical, just the decals differ! The metal frame is always the same typical 1950s italian frame. Each kit contains all the different versions of cranks needed for the different Protar models, but most parts are similar for all bikes. Therefore it is practically impossible to build a decent 1980s Colnago out of the Protar kit.

Anyone know a good way to get some of these? I couldn't really google a source anywhere. Anyone have some they want to sell? Or one? (I suppose I'd prefer the Colnago, then Bianchi, then..) Thanks, JP
