Fellow Listmembers,

I don't often offer frames for sale on the list; but upon occasion I do have something special to pass along to our group here. I don't like sel ling on eBay, so the first shot always starts with you guys.

First up is a Masi 3V, the Russian Team version, of which 100 were made. At least that's what is implied by the serial # listed on the top tube. It's number 81 of 100. The frame came in for repair and repaint. I put in a new down tube and repainted it exactly like it was when it came in. The serial number on the top tube was hand written, so that's how I ref inished it and with the same number, obviously. The frame is perfectly s ound and is the original bright red with the Russian Team decals in yell ow. The size is 57cm center to TOP with a 57cm c-c top tube. She's ready to go with new chrome on the fork and everything. I'll be taking some p hotos later today. If you are GENUINELY interested in this frame for $90 0 plus shipping, I'll send you photos.

Second on the block is one of my 3 personal Montelatici frames that I pu rchased from Mattaeo when the lot was first discovered. I bought all 3 s mall frames that didn't have forks with them; so this has a custom built Baylis fork that matches the frame and most of the other Montes. It's 5 1cm center to top with a 53cm c-c top tube length. Shes medium blue with white panels with all the proper decals and it's a real beauty. I've on ly ridden it 3 or 4 times or less. This bike RIDES GREAT! It's currently built up but I'm selling just the frame and fork. Photos later today if you are REALLY interested. Price is $1250 plus shipping. Just in case y ou are wondering, there's no doubt in my mind that these frames were con tract built for Montelatici by Cinelli.

That's it. If you want to call me on the phone to talk or make a deal my cell number is: 619-228-3512. Thanks for looking. Photos later unless t here are people who already know what these things look like and buy the m. That would save me some precious time today. You can trust me, these bikes are SWEET!!
