FS: 56cm Mario Varia Racing Frameset - Columbus SL

Sold

Very nice frame from a fairly obscure builder (still in the business, however: BICISPORT ? di Vaira Mario). I've only seen one other online (C&V forums of course), but the craftsmanship and detail is clearly indicative of Italian quality. This frame has a nice patina, but no dents or significant chips, scrapes etc. A good scrubbing would make it shine, but it looks very good as is. Based on the BB shell, it appears to be made with Columbus SL tubing and has nicely sculpted, windowed lugs and Campy dropouts. I'd call this a size 56 with the following measurements: Top Tube 56cm ctc Seat Tube 54.5cm ctc 56cm ctt Chainstays 41.5cm Head tube 14cm I am asking $200 shipped CONUS for the frame as pictured, including the very nice Campagnolo headset.
