Hi guys. Readers of Catch of the Day will know that I got a big score of poorly listed bikes this week, and I could do with some help describing them well. I'd love to keep all of them, but I can do a lot more with the money....
First off, here's a Viner road bike:
It's 531, with Campy Nuevo Record rear mech, and shifters, and a Suntour front mech. Cinelli pista bars, Specialized stem, Campy Hardox rims, Shimano 600 hubs. I've had to go to a second post to get the pics up....

Hmm. Can't get the front end or cranks pics up. I'll just link to them:

Then there's the TT bike. The frame is Ascoli, which I don't know anything about. 753 frame and fork, complete Suntour Sprint gruppo, Rolls San Marco saddle, Campy hubs, damn, Araya aero rims . 24" at the front, 700c rear, both tubulars. This thing is a hoot to ride, but made my neck hurt after 2 miles. It's got some sort of stonecatcher on front and rear tires, which rubs constantly no matter what I do with it.

Anything more you all can tell me about this baby will be a huge help

Finally, the real prize. The Bates track bike. It's 531, Campy Record high flange hubs, Mavic GP4 tubular rims, Cinelli Pista bars, Specialized stem, Look pedals, and a crankset I haven't managed to identify. This has bling in the extreme. The lugs have been gold-lined, as has the EG Bates enscription on the stays. I tried it this morning in sneakers - first experience of fixed, and wow was it wierd. I would love to keep this thing!

Surely someone can at least tell me something about Ascoli?
