This Columbus SL steel frameset shows the usual signs of age/usage, but it's still in wonderful condition! The alignment has been checked and certified by frame guru Harry Havnoonian at Cycle Sport in Media, PA. Some replacement decals would make this frame look super - I can hook you up!

1980s  COLNAGO  52 cm      $1050

I'm not sure what model this Colnago is, but it has eyelets for fenders on the front and rear. All of the normal engravings (chainstay, top of the seat stays near the seatpost clamp and on the fork crown) to show it is definitely the legendary Italian brand. The bike would be a great restoration project or perfect for someone in the city who doesn't want to draw attention to their otherwise valuable ride! More pics of the bike can be seen here.
