yes the one on ebay at £425 does seem very high-probably about right for a

complete campag equipped bike-but a frame that has been repaired a little to o much i think i have a saronni frame and forks number 30 in the world champioship red. i am cerrently rebuilding it and when its done and i have done a few rides on it will probably move it on to make way for the next project saronnis were built by two companies first by colnago for 2 reasons, to celebrate saronnis 82 world s win and also he recognised that even the colna gos were stupidly expensive so he set up saronni as a micro brand. another thing at the time firms could only sponsor i trade team so frames were made under the banners of saronni,colner and raul to get round this later saronnis were made by technotrat who went on i think to launch the de

bernardi brand the colnago saronnis were made from columbus aelle tubes and the others fro m no brand cro mo tubes i have contacted the archivist at colnago and saronni himself who is now ds

at lampre with details about my saronni and they confirm mine is a colnago built on any more info or memories of these frames would be gratefully received
thanks
