Hello Everybody +I was trolling through ebay a few weeks ago and stumbled across something different. a gentleman in the Netherlands was selling off some of his older cycling goodies from his business. among them was this beautiful frame and fork. actually this one is different I lost the auction to some snipers and the seller took pity on me and offered a consolation prize.

this is a Cornelo "Triomphe" frame from about 1987. as you can see in the pics it has never even been built up, the BB was never faced n chased nor was the headtube. the frame is Columbus Alle tubing and is 'crimped' or corregated, (I forget the fancy term Colnago uses) with 6 groves down the lenght of the tube. it has a frnt der braze on, and the chain and seat are chromed from the bridges to the dropouts. the fork is 531 blades with a very sleak Zues 2000 crown. now if I can just find some good looking, little used Victory and/or Triomphe parts to hang on it. I neglected to get the angles but I am awaiting a reply from the seller.

as I find goodies to build it up with I'll try and keep this thread up to date. however since a may have totaled my BTV (Bianchi transport vehicle) on friday so it might be awhile before I can start building it up.
