Offered for sale to CR list members, a very RARE mid-1980s Eddy Merckx Aero-Tubed Columbus "Team" Frameset == serial #E2534 == 100% original paint =57cm. CTT  frame size == price is $850.00 plus shipping.

Photos of bike as built plus photos of bare frameset as being sold can be viewed at the following Wool Jersey address:

Frame is very nice undamaged condition!!!  I refer to this as a "Team" frame as it is fitted with a factory braze-on toptube number tab.  Will include the Shimano downtube shift levers that were modified to fit the brazed-on frame fitting.  I will also include an alloy 1" headset if the buyer would like it (think it is a Tange or Asian equivalent headset).

I have only put about 75 miles on this bike since built and when  the photos were taken and originally posted on Wool Jersey, so the bike is in the exact same condition today as it was then.

Please contact me offlist if you are interested or have any questions - sorry, but the price is firm.
