I have these two 60cm retro classics for sale for a friend of mine. Shipment is direct from him in NL.

1st up this beautiful Legnano classic
The Criterium seatpost is NOS as well as the seatpost bolt. The seatpost is probably not completely time correct, but close and certainly better than the original one.

The build date of 1978 is not proven, but the closest I could estimate based on a lot of readings on the net. Having no serial seems to be normal.

The bike is in really good shape, as you will probably see from the pictures. Almost no scratches at all and all the decals are in great shape. It is not a real high-end bike, as can be seen from the no name pedals, but also from the rest of the group in particular the Nuovo Valentino’s, but it is mostly original (to my knowledge) and in perfect working order.

Bike is not too heavy and although Falck tubing is not so well known, from what I read it is not too bad, also seen by the 26.6mm seatpost diameter. It is still a real Legnano, I think the old man was killed by the Mafia one year later after which the family sold the bike business.

Known to be not original:
- seatpost bolt- seatpost
- (outer) brakecables
- Mavic Module E2 rims.

The whole bike has maybe one flaw: the handlebar is a bit bent forward. Not by me, but when I bought it, I didn’t notice it.

He is looking for offers around £300 posted (£265 + £35 postage) - I have a spare set of bars I can supply if the bend mentioned is a concern.


2nd up is this Skyliner commuter type bike
The bike is from 1983 and it is as new and this is really no exaggeration. The Adamas AX groupset is not high end, but it is an aero group and in extremely good condition, still really nice even today

Since sending me this spec list he had an accident and mangled the rear mech, the rest of the bike remains unscathed. The price has been adjusted accordingly. Would be ideal for a fixie or single speed conversion or just replace the rear mech and you'll have yourself and lovely everyday bike. He will consider offers around £145 (£110 + £35 delivery) reduced from £170 posted
