[Italvega Super Special 61cm Columbus Frame in gorgeous shape...
I had spoken to the seller also, that was a very nice barely used frame, pretty much used as wall art for most of its life. I had much interest, but seeing as it was way too big for me, would have been up on my wall, probably till I passed away. Glad you got it and will make use of it, Hope you'll feature it in a build thread, and maybe even ride it in an Eroica event. I'm hoping more Italvega bicycles will show for this year's event, I was the only one there last year along with one frame in a sales tent. I hope to bring 2 or 3 Italvega bikes to the event this year, space hopefully available in my minivan. I have two Super Speciale frames that same metallic silver-green mist color, one 58 cm and the other 56 cm. Haven't decided if I will build one up as a Superlight yet.
