There is a nice looking 1980's Taverna bike on Italian Ebay, with a very low buy it now price. The buyer must be able to pick the bike up in Ferrara. An Italian listmember (I can't remember his name) who doesn't seem to post any longer, used to frequently mention this builder. Here is the link to the Ebay page: _http://ebay.com/<blah 0191996325QQihZ013QQcategoryZ7297QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem_ (http://ebay.com/<blah> 325QQihZ013QQcategoryZ7297QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) >
Or, go to Ebay item number 230191996325.
Here is a link to Taverna's website (they still have steel as an option): <http://www.vetta.it/presentazione.htm >
And here is more contact & location info I found for Taverna: <_http://www.prontoimprese.it/veneto/padova/padova/meccanico%7C2686707.html_ (http://www.prontoimprese.it/veneto/padova/padova/meccanico|2686707.html) >
