Rossin Ghibli
I’ve been on the lookout for a Ghibli for a bit. A guy sent me these photo and stated that it’s a 56x58 Rossin Ghibli. Anyone have insight on this?

Rossin bikes are great and Ghibili’s in particular are desireable. Many have amazing and impressive paint schemes.
Does this one particularly float your boat?
Also: more Sante’?

I like it but is it really a Ghibli? Are there any distinguishing characteristics? And I'm not familiar with Sante at all.

I thought the Ghibli had crimped tubing?

Sante’ was a short lived shipmano group that was intended to fit between 600 and Dura Ace but it just didn’t catch on. I suspect the white finish rubbing off the cranks and causing unsightly gouges in the RD after a crash may have been part of its demise.

e you seen the "Bicicone Buy N Sell" guys on Facebook? They find bikes. I asked them to find a Ghibli and this is what they found. Seems shady. They said it's 500 euros plus shipping.

I can make out ribbing on the top tube, so it could legitimately be a Ghibli - however, I highly doubt that's the original finish. Not an iota of chrome. You can do better. Pass

The Rossin BB is also a good indicator through it is only on some of the latter models...
