Hi all,

Hopefully someone here can steer me in the right direction. In an effort to cull my bike collection, I pulled down my old '85 Colnago Super, which I haven't ridden with any seriousness in at least two years. It was my first race bike, and at this time, is completely vintage. I was going to update it, but that opportunity slipped past me.

The current issue with the bike is what I want to do with it. First of all, it needs to be completely overhauled and cleaned up. My LBS said that would cost me about $150. But I've been thinking that maybe I should get an expert bike restoration person to take a look at it, and apply their abilities to the bike.

I was hoping someone on board here can steer me toward a bicycle restorer in the Los Angeles area, or more preferably, the San Fernando Valley. The frame might also need painting, or at least touching up.

Thanks.
