Added another bike to the stable this afternoon, a "real" '88 Tommaso: All Campy including chrome dropouts except the brake levers. SLX tubing with chrome chain stays. A very unexpected purchase but the deal was to good to pass up. I took a flyer and offered half of asking price and the guy took it. He was tired of dealing with Craigslist "no shows" and the tons of email requests for additional photos. I looked at the listing for 2 days, contacted the guy, ask if he was open to offers, made one and scored!

Darn. He took half of asking price! He must of needed the cash or the room. How good of a deal was it?; if you don't mind sharing.

Very nice, but the cable housing to the RD looks too short.
