Subject: [CR] Molteni De Rosa? bike


Hi Listers, The Eddy Merckx Molteni replica bike that was the subject of is it or isn't it a 'De Rosa' last week as now been sold.......for only £950!!

I can't believe it went for as low as that, someone, maybe here on this list?, as got an absolute bargain......I did a valuation of the parts less frame, and I reckon it was possible to get in the region of £1500/1600 going by recent prices on ebay......for example, I think in the wheels alone there's around £300 [with the tubs, there worth £50/60 each!]

And considering most of it was new, and included titanuim axles.....................well, had it been 4cm bigger I'd have had it myself, though I suppose its a blessing in disguise I missed it as I really don't need another Super Record bike.

Cheers
