After owning and riding a 58cm/23" frame for a bit, I've decided that is my size. I would like to trade my '91 Bianchi Eros frame (ST=55cm CTC, TT=57cm CTC) for the next size larger, but ONLY for another pink/black Eros like this one. Anybody got one kicking around?



BB area:



Fork which I have clearanced for larger tires and touched-up the paint. (Pay no attention to the clutter in the background!)



Headset races are in great shape with no brinnelling:



Only rust is on the dropouts/fork ends and where the paint cracked at the seat tube bolts. Nothing deep, and I generally applied Carmex to this spot to protect it from further corrosion:



Thanks!

P.S. Rest of the pictures are here: http://s36.photobucket.com/albums/e2...hi_Eros_Frame/

P.P.S. My Eros frame has since been damaged beyond tradeability, but I'd still be interested in a 57cm if anyone has one.

P.P.P.S. Found a 23"/58cm pink-and-black Eros frame on eBay, so I'm no longer ISO.
