Tommasini Tecno

I just got a Tommasini Tecno. It is circa 96. It has full tri color 8 speed Shimano 600/ Ultegra with Campy rims. The STI were beyond repair, but I replaced with some down tube shifters. It is Colombus steel and roughly 61 CM (my size) I'll post pics eventually, but what would this go for in metro DC area? I got it for a song. It does have a few minor cosmetic issues with the paint, but is otherwise a solid 8/10. Any ideas?

Pics are important.

I've got them, and I was reading about that guy. The rear is partially disassembled (unsure if I can actually reassemble) but the the front is fine. That being said I actually think I want to stay old school with this build. Maybe I'll just sell them to him.

Here is one bad pic. As you can see it came with the very narrow handlebars popular during that time. My new bars should be waiting for me when I get home and I'll put it together.

Built up with Shimano 600 you'd probably get in the nieghbourhood of $700 or so, perhaps more if you have the original fork.

Unfortunately the fork is MIA. Considering I paid about 1/4 of that price, I'm pretty stoked. Hand made Italian steel was on my bucket list.

This guy is selling a nice looking Tecno with two Tommasini forks, one an uncut unthreaded one that would likely fit your bike.

Tommasini Tecno - Italian Lugged Steel - Chris King - Best Offer
