A 7-11 Team for East Hill
 
7-11 Merckx

Oh, there are days when I wish I was an inch or two taller!

That 50cm is just a tad bit too big though. You really had me going there, I thought you might have found me a 48cm (which would be perfect :D ).

Still, it would fit bmaxwell :innocent: .

I think it's actually a 49, at least from the serial number.

Do you measure c-c or c-t? Seat post is 48.5cm c-c, 50cm c-t.

It still has a bit too much headtube for my liking. Normally I don't see any space on the headtubes of my bikes.

OT, but there is a Colnago that looks to be very small being floated on the Serotta forum:

And if the seller listens to the to the advices from the other Serrotta forum members you'd get a hell of a deal ;)

EastHill,
The way Serotta does their images, I can't just snag them and repost here. I'm assuming you read the thread. It is silver/pink fade, C-Record, and probably a 48-49cm with teeny head tube. It would be worth joining the forum and PM'ing him/her if interested. I told them to post here, but as you may know, the site was down for a good part of the early day.

Here's the best I could do:

Wow, that is indeed an East Hill bike!

Ok, I will trudge over there and sign up :lol: .

Yeah, they are telling him $500-$1000 for a Colnago with Cobalto's and C-Record!

mainducoyote 01-06-09 08:57 PM

With what looks like a flawless first gen c-record crankset...

Old Fat Guy 01-06-09 09:00 PM

mainducoyote,

Can you tell what the RD is on that bike?

If I was a 'nago fan I would have someone in LA pick that up for my wife.

mainducoyote 01-06-09 09:09 PM

Maybe last generation C-Record or just Record but I'm not sure . I find it strange that it's not a first generation C-Record.

I joined up and posted into the thread. I also sent tamh a PM.

What a beautiful little bike :D .

A great colour, too!

Good Luck, now who just North of LA can pick it up for you?

If it had been 4cm, it would have been mine.

And just to make East Hill's life more full of tough decisions . . . .

I don't know yet--I sure would like to add it to the stable, though!

But I like the Colnago :D .

I'm not sure, but I think it is related to Murphy's Law in some way.
