I have to correct the sizing of the bikes. We just have measured them again for security and they measure like this: 59 ctt for the blue bike 58 ctt for the gold bike 57 ctt for the Silver bike for which a sale is pending already. Sorry for the mistake

Dear listmembers, My favourite local bike shop has discovered three forgotten bikes in the attic. I am helping to sell these bikes and will handle the shipping. So I posted pictures of the bikes in my wooljersey account and offer the bikes to this list before thy go to ebay. All three bikes are made by Kotter of Albuch in southern germany. Kotter was sponsoring a racing team in the eighties, Didi Thurau rode for them in 1981 and 1982. The frames of this bikes were made in Italy either by Romani or Chesini or by another smaller contract builder. The painting was done in Albuch, the shop owner rememberd that he could order virtually any colour back in the day. All three bikes have a complete Campy GS gruppo including headsets. Two bikes even come with GS pedals, one even has the GS seatpost. More details for the single bikes and prices asked:

Blue bike, labeled Kondor (the Kotter owned brand before their team sponsoring) 57cm frame Varese branded bar+stem combo, Benotto red plastic bar tape with matching end plugs. The bike comes including a Kondor labeled pump, the frame is built with Zeta tubing, fully chromed under mettalic blue paint, model name Exclusiv, nice lugs with cutouts filled with red contrasting paint. Some scratches on the left rear stay from storage, crhome shines through. Other wise no blemishes. Also with GS pedals and seatpost, Sellte Italia S 17 leather covered black saddle, High flange GS hubs with Super champion tubular rims and d'Alessandro tires, never glued on but holding aior very well (shown in the gallery on the gold bike) , 1978 marked GS cranks, so year of production should be 1978. Regina oro six speed Cluster and matching chain. Nice and subtle black world logo brakelever hoods, still carrying protective talkum film. Campy dropouts. K branded fully chromed fork.

These bikes were middle-class models and were never ridden. What's unusual im my opinion is the use of cpmplete gruppos instead of the typical mix in similiar ranged bikes. I can take more pictures of details if necessary. I will personally pack and ship the bikes in order to make sure all is there and nothing gets damaged. Please check out the pics and meke me an offer if the asked price seems inappropriate.
