George Allen outed this bike:

280187335518

a 1973-1975 Colnago Super with some interesting aftermarket-customized parts. The frame is actually rather nice..these particular Supers are becoming more difficult to find in clean, original paint and graphics.

The parts I found less-interesting, as they were almost certainly done by some owner who wanted to personalize his ride. That's always a double-edged sword: one man's affectation isn't guaranteed to appeal to all the way it does to him.

The seller is a member of the list, and I've had some e-mail with him. He and I differ over the realistic market value of the bike--but, who knows? All it takes is one person who's gotta have it, yes?
