Listers,

I visit your inbox today on a commercial mission. I am looking to sell the following items:

1) NOS Italian 80% wool shorts with Leather Chamois. Really nice traditional shorts, no brand name, unused, as far as I can tell. Size 3. Pictures here: http://tinyurl.com/ybtko65

75 dollars plus shipping.

2)NOS Cinelli wool shorts with round, leather baseball stitched chamois, Beautiful classic short with a button up pocket in the rear. Size 3. Pictures here: http://tinyurl.com/y9f6lok

90 dollars plus shipping

3) 1940's Cimatti Cambio Corsa bike, 57cm square. This bike is a Cambio Corsa equiped bike that was changed to a standard Campagnolo Gran Sport derailleur system sometime in the late fifties/early sixties. Bike is in wonderful shape, given its age but the chrome and paint are far from perfect. It is a wonderful time capsule in that it shows what a 'with it' racer would have done to his bike when modern derailleurs came around. The Cambio Corsa teeth appear to be fully extant (I have not removed the rear wheel to 100% back this up) and the 3 piece hub shell wheelset and cogs are the original Cambio Corsa set. The bike now sports a Campagnolo Gran Sport rear mech with a one sided shifter and cable tunnel to shift across four speeds. Magistroni hollow axle cottered bb, crank and headset, Ambrosio bars, Universal brakes, etc. Truly a top of the line racing bike of the period.

Bike is available for viewing and pick-up in Brooklyn, NYC.

1900 dollars o.b.o plus shipping and packing.

4) Finally- I am coordinating the remote part of Alan Bernstien's upcoming bike auction. Please contact me, if you haven't already, so I can set up the remote bidding process for you.More info about the auction here:http://tinyurl.com/ycmm4x3

So, now business is completed! Enjoy your day, please excuse the intrusion
