RE: GALMOZZI /Ebay Bike
Sorry doen't meet your standards.... I'm new to the vintage stuff and the guys I trust here in san Diego were pretty stoked....Everyone thought it was in great condition. I did not know about the re-paint but Cyclearts, well who else would you have paint your bike besides maybe Joe Bell, also here in san Diego. A Galmozzi is RARE....I've only seen one. The new owner will be stoked! BIG PICTURE GUYS:-a cheap tiawanese carbon bike is 3000.00 and Trek has pimped all there carbon stuff out too. So we are in a very limited market for classic steel framsets. This one with the period correct adjustments will be a GREAT vintage ride. When the cycling world rediscovers steel, as I believe it will, this framesets with be worth a lot more...I know people in the vintage car market and their debates are the same....which year Mustang was the best or the GTO that sold a the Barrett Auto auction had machined brake calipers not the original.......Well the car is still rare and cool.....And thats what the new owner paid for.....So, the Galmozzi, despite the criticisms, is still a really cool vintage bike. And the new owner can add his own "sweat" equity to the bike by finding the period correct parts and that is why we do this vintage thing: the process and the the history. Cheap Tiawanese bikes have no soul. This bike, as many of the vintage bikes you have, have soul! We all know it, we can feel it and thats what make us different and out bikes different! MY .02
