Basic Bike Info

Bicycle Type: 
Road Bike
Size: 
58 cm
Color: 
Metallic Grey w/ white decals
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features: 
The Rossin had a black Cinelli stem, Modolo Professional brakes, white grip tape, Campagnolo seat post with a Bernard Hinault Turbo saddle. Forks and right chain stay were chrome. I installed a temporary crank, pedals and rear derailleur so that a friend could try it for size. The crank was common (new Siguno maybe) but the rear derailleur was a vintage Triplex Professional--Campy copy, not too common and an old Shimano 600/MA 40 rear wheel, front wheel was unmatched. I had also installed my old Shimano SPD mountain bike pedals for the test ride. Included photo shows the bike without the temporary parts installed.
