Impressive Uncle Just. It was the only seat cluster nut and bolt I had that fitted the frame. The bolt is too long but it was in as new condition so I used it. Saronni used a nut and bolt on his seat cluster of his famous bike - so - I had to use one too.Uncle Just wrote:Very nice Gary. Lovely red colour too. I've always liked chromed or polished lugs and also done on the dropout faces too. (The only thing you may need to upgrade is a better seat post bolt )
The chrome work is (or was) flawless but taken beyond what you would find on a Colnago Mexico or Super of that era. Just on that, if you were ordering a Frame from the Colnago factory, you could order it with chrome in a few places, i.e. the stays, forks, lugs, etc. or it could be ordered just painted.
Again - very well spotted.
