Guerciotti - cromor advice

Hello guys, this red beauty catched my eye this evening, paint and groupset looks original and in good condition, whats your opinion on its real price, seller asks roughly 400 euros. Is it worth? Have to struggle with posting from phone, so pictures only in the olx, sorry.

Thanks for your time and help!

That's a handsome bike. Cromor/Matrix was a seamed and drawn tubeset that was mid-way in wall thickness and weight between Columbus SL and SP and made up into a very functional and affordable frameset. The 400 Euro price seems entirely fair for a Columbus framed, all Campagnolo bike with beautiful paint and all kinds of chrome.

It's hard to say without knowing the exact group, though it appears to be mid-1990s Athena.

I'd say that's a great price and worth it all day long.

Had a talk with the seller today, there are some unexpected changes with the bicycle. The dual commands and the rear derailleur are gone, he placed shifters and lever brakes without rubber covers. From the pictures he send me i can see the saddle is also swaped with some newer selle italia. Now im waiting for his corrected price, but im starting to give up on that bike.



he said thats campagnolo record shifters
Basicly now im facing uncomplete groupset and frameset without the most desirable tubes out there

If someone was swapping parts at the last minute I think I would walk away.
