56cm c-t; 56.5cm c-c top-tube

early/mid 1970s. What you see is what you get: nice, correct record steel headset in very good condition; correct swiss fixed cup installed! French adjustable cup with lock-ring, spindle and bearings available at an extra charge if you need them. seatpost binder bolt as shown; dropout adjusters in excellent condition.

Chrome is virtually perfect on this frame, the sole flaws are a bit of wear and cracking of the graphics (quite mild), and a bit of surface corrosion on the undersides of the top-tube and down tube. Easily cleaned up, nothing serious. Paint is otherwise very good, I'd call it 8 out of 10..just about all the pinstriping is intact, except for a bit of wear here and there.

Sweet frame, one of the nicest-riding bikes out of the 70s, ready for your Campagnolo parts group. This would also make a nice all-purpose fixed-gear bike, what with the lack of braze-ons (except for the rear-brake cable stops..might as well put a rear brake on it!)

I haven't checked the seatpost but these were usually 26.6.

Feel free to e-mail any questions you may have.
