I tried to sell that bike 10 years ago - no one was interested even at a few hundred pounds sterling.

These two processes will get you a real glitz queen.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394704578765242695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-172202953319134786.post-3213630467251197442009-09-21T19:28:34.796-07:002009-09-21T19:28:34.796-07:00Not sure what the Arabesque lugs have to do with t...Not sure what the Arabesque lugs have to do with this 55th Aniversary bike. The lugs on this frame are the "Art Deco" lugs first used on the MasterPiù, and nothing to do with the lugs designed by Raul Gozzi. Lovely bike. Now we just need a modern day ICS to polish up some gold plated 11-speed Super Record parts and this bike will be a classic for the ages!!!Toffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11142682981548789120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-172202953319134786.post-36404380583732395362009-09-18T23:32:20.044-07:002009-09-18T23:32:20.044-07:00And the price will be........?And the price will be........?Niksul Valsidalvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720320253461353835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-172202953319134786.post-3321689760798173772009-08-11T07:57:21.938-07:002009-08-11T07:57:21.938-07:00nice ;)nice ;)Stefan R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08575902330058200980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-172202953319134786.post-22564672412413642102009-08-08T09:43:18.194-07:002009-08-08T09:43:18.194-07:00A very interesting choice for an anniversary bike....A very interesting choice for an anniversary bike. Ernesto Colnago always liked the Arabesque with its fancy lugs. His detractors claim their design was borrowed from Rauler.<br />In the past Colnago has made a few very eloborate frame-sets combining Arabesque lugs with shaped tubes and glitzy paintwork. These were marketed under the name "Regal", among others.<br />George Hollenberg MD<br />Confente.orgUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394704578765242695noreply@blogger.com
