After a few years of occasionally searching for a good quality vintage Italian bike in my size (52cm bikes are not as common as I'd like), I found this last August near my daughter's high school. The paint is too nice to be original so I assume it was repainted shortly before the previous owner got it. She had bought it 5 years prior but it proved to be too big for her, and they'd just bought a house so they had it priced to sell. I've swapped a few parts to fit me better and added the NOS bottle cage, pump clip and an NOS Silca pump, but other than that, I've done nothing to it.
I've ridden it twice for a total of about 75 miles so far. I'd ride it more but it just won't stop raining here. All it need now is a longer stem and I'm set.
