Battaglin

Hi there

it's me again.
I found this lovely Battaglin....

Battaglin 59-60 with columbus frames
derailleur, brakes and cranks shimano 105
front end and handlebar cinelli



Price will be around 300 $.

I want to know if the price is to high or if i should consider an buy it.....but i'm not the expert about the italian frames like Battaglin

Thanks

Steve

Of course, your local market makes all the difference on price. Here, I would snap that up in a heart beat. Battaglin aren't thought of in the same tier as Colnago or Pinarello, but they are certainly decent.

I agree $300 for that is a steel! it looks big though.

Nice deal at $300. Even better if the tubing type is SL or SLX.

Not a bad deal but since you are in Luxembourg, I would check out the Belgian classifieds sites for something with a bit more bling, I see many great deals on Kapaza.be and 2dehands.be for bikes in that size (Belgians are tall, I guess).

Ah an Americanism, Yes at 300 that is a good deal or as Americans might say 300 is a steal or your stole that for 300. I did use a little word play using steel since it is after all steel bike.

Sorry for the confusion. A lot of the guys here are big on grammar and correct spelling and I like to throw out a little intentional curve ball when I can.

Sorry to have just read you post. This IS an slx frame and in my opinion this bike was worth well over $1000.

Here is mine

Good one and I was wondering when I first saw the clever play on the word. Now try to punctuate this...

thatthatisisisnotthatso

...and let us know what it says.
