Just dug this name up out of one of the bulgier.net Rossin catalogs: (http://www.bulgier.net/pics/bike/Catalogs/rossin/5.jpg)
I realize it is a long shot - but short of the purple Erregi track frame floating around online (plus this brochure) might anyone have a few photographs of one?

This is pretty old thread, but I've been trolling for any information about Erregi's. I just bought one about a week ago, will a full shimano 600 groupo, and it even had what I assume to be the original wheel and silk tubular tire on the rear. It was missing the front wheel and has an unoriginal fork, which is causing no end of headaches. I'll post pictures if anyone wants, and if anyone knows about these bikes that would be great, especially if they can find a fork for one.

I actually have owned an Erregi since 1986..as much as that hurts to admit! :-) I'll try to answer any questions. I raced that frame back in the day and my brother raced it in Europe for a summer..

You were racing way back then but only now have made your 1st post in C&V?
How long have you been lurking here?
(Wecome to C&V, invictus43. We would like to see pics of your bike!)

Haha! Actually, this was the first time I've been on here! :-) I was actually a team mechanic back then as well...I've built more damn wheels... :-) Thanks for the welcome too! :-)

Hey, sorry I never put up a picture, I kind of forgot, but that's interesting you used to race an Erregi.

The wheels and tires are new, as is the fork, but the rest is original. i picked up from someone who seemed to have bought it as a project, but never did anything with it. The serial number is 53, if that helps anyone. It's cool though, how low volume these must have been, or that this one is very early.
thanks

I have a red one from the early 80's full campy. any idea what it is worth? I am actually looking to sell it.

Well, that's what I'm wondering too. I'm not really sure what it's worth, it has nice Columbus tubing, etc..., but I'm not sure if people are looking for them. I like it lot though, it rides beautifully. If I sell it, it's to give it to someone who can take better care of it than I can.
Sorry, not to reply earlier, school.....

Any luck with that? I am a brand new member to tis forum and have the same bike.

Whoa..blast from the past.. :-) FWIW, it had Columbus Aelle tubing..straight gauge steel..it wasn't bad but it wasn't SL or other butted tubesets. I have the old style fork crown with engraved logo, not the fully sloping fork. It's a fairly long wheelbase bike, not a short crit bike like a Gios Torino or Gianni Motta. Fairly comfortable for longish rides. I don't think it's worth much..it was fairly mediocre in the day, not a Super Record level...more Nuovo Record..still, has sentimental value for me.
