The seller has, with the stroke of a keyboard, changed the date of the bike in the listing to 1972.

Hi Crew, I know the seller well, and he is a good guy. Enjoy the photos and consider the ebay sale as a reverse auction. As the price drops, or someone places an offer that is acceptable, the end selling price will be much higher than if an auction started from a base point. This strategy has paid dividends for my friend in the past and has set some price precedents for some classic Italian creations. Someone out there will pay more than what we consider it's worth as these babies just dont show up in this condition. Regardless, a sound investment - as this is quality plus. (shame about the Universal 68s and some bivalents would be a bonus here) Here is the link to these 49 pictures http://www.flickr.com/photos/cyclomondo/sets/72157622579932203/ I am staying out of the debate on this and will watch quietly from the sidelines. I get more satisfaction creating these works of art from a pile of components and a workshop full of skill, focus and hard work. Greg Softley Australia
