Nowhere near as cool as the Bottechia, but here's a Ross Super Grand Tour XV. Bought a pile of bikes today for 25$, sold the rest of them to another fellow for 12.50$, this was the only one I wanted to keep. Mostly for the near complete Shimano 600 Arabesque, missing only the rear derailleur. The 600 is in pretty good shape once I cleared the sawdust off it; perhaps it was stored in lumber mill. The frame is Ishiwata 024 (I'm guessing about a 501 equivalent) double-butted and chro-moly. There is, alas, some damage to one of the rear drops; Barnett's claims there is an easy fix I'll have to try. The bike doesn't fit me, obviously, it's a mere 52cm. One of the nicer Rosses, not up to the signature line, but an okay bike. If I can fix the frame I'll likely give it away.
