Pretty much Campy Chorus cmpnts, Nuovo Rec hubs to GP-4 rims, Edco Comp hdset, Record Carbon 8-sp ergos,Tom Ritchey seatpost, Regina SL Extra freewheel, Regina Extra SL chain, Veloflex Sprinter tubulars, Look Worlds Pedals, Avocet 40 cyclometer & a lot of Ti parts...20.5 lbs.
Titans were Made in Italy & sold in Switzerland. My research leads me to believe they were made by either Losa or Bilatto under contract.
They sat unsold in a warehouse prolly since the late 80's, when a number of years ago, they popped-up on ebay for unbeatable prices.
I picked this one up recently from an ebay seller who apparantly found it somewhere & held onto it for a bit?
These framebuilders also do contract building for Guerciotti, Cinelli...etc
From the ebay seller:
Most all of these Titans were "Varnished by Dossena Carlo"...alhough, I have not seen another with a paint job like this
NOS TITAN "Exclusive" /
“Exklusiv” Road Bike Frame: Wild Custom Paint by Dossena Carlo, Swiss, Columbus SL Lugged Steel
THE PAINTER: Dossena Carlo is an Italian bike painter who has been around the works.
His paint jobs can be found on Ciocc, DeBernardi, DeRosa, Casati and many other high end Italian bicycles.
"Dossena Carlo" creates unique paint schemes on all of his works.
I mounted this copper 'Compass Rose' on the Headtube.
