Hello List-

I was recently offered several older italian track bicycles from an acquaintance in Italy. One of which, I am really interested but know very little about. It appears to be 1950's (?) Stucchi. Other than the abundance of posters available online and a few sparse threads in the archives, there is not much information available.

From looking at the pictures, everything looks original, however I question the stem/bar combo, pedals, the rims and the bottom bracket. I'd love to get some opinions.

I was also offered a Monti and a Wrobel, which you will see pictured. Not sure if I have the funds to purchase all, however I am considering the Monti.

At any rate, please take a gander at the photos and let me know what you think.
