I am with Scotty.singlespeedscott wrote:Mate, that looks fantastic. I love IF frames. I've wanted one since I first drooled over a Yo Eddy team Fat Chance MTB back in the early 90's.dodge wrote:My new frame all built up
Thought very hard about getting an IF when my Moots was destroyed.
My nit pick would be the Thomson stuff.
I love it on MTB's but it just looks "industrial" on road bikes IMO.

what weight of your completed bicycle?simonn wrote:Finally got around to putting on my Fulcrum Racing Torq R crankset and getting the steerer cut down on Gugai (FM066, Campagnolo Veloce/Fulcrum groupo and Prolite Bracciano wheelset):
The above crankset was removed from Van Helsing below because the last bit finally arrived to install the Sugino OX601XD 46/30 super-compact crankset (well, it is my audax bike and I reckon gradients get steeper by 2-3% for every 100km you ride ):
There was a bottle cage bolt in the exact place the band on the old front derailleur needed to be so I had to get one of these to work around that:
... and a new front derailleur, so in a fit of experimentation I went with a Shimano CX-70 as it is designed to work with CX cranksets, i.e. smaller rings. Campmano! So far so go. Have needed to do a bit more tuning.

No idea on the year but am thinking about the same as you.singlespeedscott wrote:
What year and size is it?
It looks like a late 80's early 90's in a 59/60cm to me?
The guy advertised it as 58cm square (C-C).
Currently I am not even sure what model it is.
He advertised it as being a Concorde Ventana, but my research shows that is a lower end Cromor tubed model.
I have had all sorts of suggestions from elsewhere including Columbo, Mistral, Prelude and Squadra.
It is definitely one of the higher end models given the PRX tubing.

Problem is Womble, that Concorde had a heap of models made of a heap of different tubing and in a heap of different paint jobs.The 2nd Womble wrote:Given the internal cable routing, it has to be a Squadra (pre-PDM days) or the next model down. Nice purchase mate. More desirable to me than most of the Italian branded stuff.
I am leaning to Squadra or Prelude.
The other suggested models were in different tubing.

Love the frame, what is it? Do those bolts at the bottom of the seat stay allow it to be separated to fit a belt-drive?plasmapuff wrote:My new Ti ride with 6800 Ultegra 11 speed

Biff, my guess is rack/guard mounts going by the similar near the seat cluster.
