Torelli ( year not known )
Currently on ebay is a torelli road bike asking price $375 + $45 Shipping
The bike is white with the torelli name in red with green, yellow, black, red and blue little flags throughout and from what I could see it has columbus Aelle tubing. Bike has nicks and scratches here and there throughout the bike. Also has a chrome fork, he did put new tires on it. So what do you think it's worth.
The sellers own words

It is hard to nail down a year for bikes like this since the same frame was offered over two or three years (say Torelli bought 10 of these white 62cm Alle frames in '89. they might not sell the last one until '91) and were sold mostly as bare frames with or without 'kits'.
This bike looks nice but the 600 RD and the silver 105 brakes are from around '86/87ish. The seller does not mention what the crank and brake levers are although I suspect the latter to be DiaCompe, but that is not a bad thing.
$375 seems a bit steep to me but if you like it and it fits you it isnt the worse deal in the world.

I think thats overpriced, i picked up my Blue Torelli Super Strada with all campy, Panto, Ofmega crank, Ambrosio 19 rims, campy hubs with just a few chips on the paint for $350.00 off of CL in Dec of 2010. (Lucky Me). That one looks like someone took off whatever Campy bits it had, and put on stuff to sell the frame. Shoot him an offer just for the frame and fork, in case his sale fails. I could not find out what year mine is also, i even called them but they did not keep records after the owner sold the Company. I am guessing mine is early 80s, its hard to pin down exactly.
