Jerry and group,
I'll second that. He's very reliable, prompt, and always seems to have great items. But I haven't purchased any Colnago items, either. Not that I would mind doing so, I just need the appropriate bike to attach them to.
Best regards,

If you mean casanova9898, he is an extremely reliable seller. He is on e of 3 or 4 European sellers I buy from frequently, and I have never had anyt hing but excellent dealings with him. Goods as described, reasonable s hi pping cost, prompt delivery. Of course I never buy Colnago panto'ed pa rt s, so I wouldn't know about those.
