Are there any vintage Guerciotti experts out there who can advise me on the history, value, and rarity of a 51cm Columbus SL Guerciotti bike that I current own and ride?
I inherited the bike from a relative and have been looking in eBay to see if there are similar Guerciotti frames out there that matches the one that I have. So far, no luck.
All of the frames out there have the concave or spooned seat stay caps by the toptube/seat lug/seat stay juncture, but the one I have has a flat almond shaped seat stay cap with the Guerciotti signature engraved on it. The fork crown is a fancy chromed investment cast crown with no engraving on the top. I have attached pictures of the bike for your inspection and review. Any advise would be greatly appreciated and welcome. :)210929210930210929210930
