Mid 1970-s 24 inch Mondia
Dropped price.. Make an offer, Come pick it up to save shipping. Worth the parts alone.
Thinking$450 $300 shipped for this unicorn. Be nice if I'm way off base, and please offer me more if I've missed the mark.
Not exactly sure of the date, bought it at a farmhouse in Switzerland. Been ridden well by all 3 of my kids, time to pass it on.
It;s a 24 inch wheelset on a Mondia steel frame. Built for racing kids. Brake levers and crankset are mini-sized.
I 'upgraded' the brake calipers to Campagnolo 1st Genertation long reach calipers from Universal.
Also upgraded the derailleurs to Nuovo record pre-CPSC.
Photos tell it all. Could use some new brake hoods.

Neat bike and very interested. What kind of tubing is that frameset made of? (I didn't notice any tubing stickers)
What does it weigh as it currently stands?

That is just precious.
There are so few decent child-sized bikes that it's a rare one who gets such a ride; and rarer still who might realize it.

Would this be a good fit for someone 5'2"?
Curious if this would be a good match for a petite adult. What is the standover height?

That’s a screaming good deal. What is the crankset? Are they 155 arms?
Too cute. I almost want it for the novelty.
