Nice Frames .... Takes me back to the day when I was riding on columbus tubing

Lovely. Particularly the Viners- as an owner of a somewhat more recent one I'm obviously biased...

Always wanted a Viner since I saw the Viner Track frames at the "Skol Six" back in the late 1970's.........either that or the similar looking SABA

quick update i have found out today that the Simoncini frame was shown at the 1992 IFMA KOLN Meeting in Cologne and has been built up as i suspected the first time i saw it .

it was displayed due to new kind of tubing !! not sure when colombus cromor was released and the lightened bottom bracket shell

now does that give me enough reason to build and use or not ???

thank you these 4 came direct from Simoncini

 

[biggs682]

decided to sell as it was just a bit on the small side

 

[Tony Raynor]

Lol @biggs682 you get the small frames and I get the big ones.
