Pricey, but looks like a nice example of a bike you don't see too often. Not too tempted by Treks at this point, but the Columbus tubed bikes always catch my eye.
Trek TX900
Trek TX900
Vintage TREK TX900 Road Bike - $1,200
A 1977 Vintage TREK Silver-brazed TX900 24” frameset from Waterloo WI (Serial #J4K7D06). The TX900 was TREK’s the early top-of-the-line road race frame set, dating from 1976 to mid-1978. The Columbus SL Double-Butted tubing, racing geometry, and fastback seat stays were characteristic of this model. Components are Campagnolo Nuovo and Super Record, Cinelli Bar and stem, tubular tires, and Brooks saddle. Also includes Cortina training rollers, spare Weinmann wood core rims, and miscellaneous parts and tools. I personally built, maintained, and raced this classic from 1977 through 1984 and then used it as my cruiser. Asking $1,200 or best offer.

two wheels only
I have read that those Performance frames were made by Biemmezeta. I always thought that they looked good.

https://offerup.com/item/detail/1380664078 - $500 - Deal of the year? or @Chicago Al strikes again?
I must say though that this Aerowind ad lacks the elegant photography, muscular writing style and overall joie de vivre of the one from Chicago.

It looks like a buyer's market for vintage tandems. Not that many people are looking for a single bike with friction barcons or downtube shifters, much less a tandem. You've got to fit the captain and the stoker, and it's cost prohibitive to ship one. We've had our tandem for 36 years, and some day we may see if the LBS will sell it on consignment, otherwise we'll probably end up selling it at a yard sale or giving it away.

Regarding the Colnago, my guess is the owner modified it as he aged so he could keep riding it. Age takes its toll on the body, so lowering the seat and raising the bars may just have been the owner's solution to that. I think that's cool.
As for the corn cob freewheel, the bike is in Tampa. That's even flatter than where I live. The owner probably hasn't needed to shift gears in years.
The handlebar tape? Maybe his granddaughter's touch during clean up. ;-)

Ignoring the saddle (which does point to a clown bike), probably seller raised the bars to show the stem isn't seized. Seems to be a popular way to photo bikes. Slammed seat makes you wonder about it being loose or....

As someone who has often dreampt of taking a frame building class I cant help but wonder what the thought process is for the use of the extended lugs? Knowing they are heavier something structurally must have been enough of an improvement that Harry felt they warranted use regardless of the weight penalty.
