WTB: Exotic road bike
Looking for an exotic road bike such as Tommasini or Bianchi or other. Chrome accents and a bit of bling would be nice. Something a bit shabby to restore. Located within driving distance of Waterloo Iowa if possible.

Yes, your right - but more of a collector, fixer, restorer than a rider (77 and after a rider friend died of a broken hip I decided to just stay on the ground) So as to size, nothing really large or really small because it might effect a later resale. Thanks.

I have a Pinarello Record frame/fork - 54cm, all the paint has been stripped so it's bare chrome at the moment. I was going to build it up as an Eroica bike but it's been a couple of years since I got it and it's been languishing.

I have a Colnago Master Piu. Late 80s or early 90s in a size 54 that I would sell or trade for a larger frame. Located in KC.
