Hello,

I'm looking to sell a 1979 Pinarello Treviso Catena Lusso bike.

I got the bike from a friend's family member who had it sitting in their shed for years. I took the bike hoping to restore it but never got around to it and so it's just collecting more dust.

Below are the details I managed to gather:

Frame and forks: 1979 Pinarello Treviso Catena Lusso
Headset: Campagnolo (model unknown)
Stem: Vintage Cinelli
Handlebars : Cinelli Criterium 65 - 42cm
Seatpost: Kalin
Saddle: Specialized BG Format SL 130
Rims: Mavic MA40
Front hub: Forged Excel
Rear hub: Vintage Campagnolo (model unknown)
Tiers: Vittoria Zaffiro
Breakes: Shimano SLX
Break Leavers: Dia-Compe 287V
Crankset: SR Super Custom
Rear derailleur: Shimano 600
Shifters: Shimano Suntour
Pedals: Shimano SPD

The bike has been resprayed, not very well. The seat post seems to be stuck, and one of the bike seatstays is slightly bent, seemingly from the previous owner forcing in the current cassette which may have been too big for this frame. The bike still rides like a dream, I rode it for a little while before switching back to my single speed city bike and putting it away.

I'm looking to sell it to someone who would like to restore it and enjoy it but I'm not sure what to price it for, so I'm looking for offers (above the £100 region).

Cash on collection from Stamford Hill N16, London

Thanks!

I remember adverts for them bitd. Did they make their own bikes or were they made by someone else? Looked like Claud Butlers (Holdsworth).
They were a quality brand and you could find them at the better retailers. Can't remember who made them though, possibly Holdsworth, be interesting to find out but can't find anything on the net. Orbit were another brand around at the same time. Funnily there's also one for sale on Gumtree;
