Bikes: 1949 'Italian' , 1950 San Giusto, 1897 Union, and a number of "projects"... 198? Grandis, a couple of Mixte's...

Many of the vintage bikes we all lust after are more common in Italy...... If you really want to find something unique or scarce, I suggest opening up Google Translator and go to the following link....
http://annunci.ebay.it/ebay-annunci

Here you will find a great many wonderful old bicycles. Use 'epoca' or 'eroica' along with a name, such as "Olmo" and you will be amazed at the things you find. Not all are willing to ship to the U.S., but I have had several very good dealings this way...and not ever had a problem as of yet.

Maybe something like this even ?

Naturally, prices are in Euros, so do the conversion and you will see items all up and down the condition and price range. I found Vintage Olmo anywhere from €99 - 1000 , from bare frame (teliao) to nicely restored examples....along with all sorts of other sweet makes and models.....

Have fun !

Joe
