Update on the Legnano Gran Premio pictured above. I completed the $100 Clunker Challenge last weekend on the Rose Bowl vintage ride ($93 spent, 117 Km).
End of Clunker Challenge. Used bar tape, chrome clean-up, used Gatorskins. Time to spend sime money on cable and housings, new tires, and tweek the fit a little.
The head badge cleaned up nice.

I'd post a photo of my ride(s), but I can't access from computer.

My Italians
actually mostly Sicilians...but close enough
been looking for an Italian bike I can afford, it will be my first road bike. Until then here are just a few of "my Italians" . Im going again in October, will check out bike shops and see if I can find one and ship back but I think shipping will be cost prohibitive

1969 Colnago Super. It has Cinelli stem, bars, and saddle, and full NR except for Tipo hubs with Nisi rims.
I just picked up this 1960 Fiorelli this week so this is in as-found condition. It has Campagnolo dropouts, Gran Sport front and rear derailleurs and shifters, Magistroni cranks, Balilla brakes, and Gnutti hubs with Fiamme clincher rims.
