Nice Stuff. someone had asked to see some smaller 48-52cm frames, so I shot down this morning and hauled a few -- about 6- back. Great looking stuff. A pair of  nice looking shop-brand aluminum with carbon forks and stays Scattos with Ultegra. there were two stuffed into a single large carton, sans wheels. So their wheels must be in one of the spare cartons. But they are looking very sexy.

A Colnago stteel framed Master that some moron had kitted out with Tiagra! gotta get that stripped off ASAP.  It is unbecoming a fine colnago frame like that to be sporting low-end Shimano.

what else? a very interesting looking aluminum Scott Waima Time Trial bike . Shimano 105 but with 650c. I remember my colleague Daniel telling me this was in pretty grimy state. But thanks to his efforts she shines and is ready to roll
