Been away riding in Jamaica. Got back to the lake cottage a week ago and had lots to do to get things ready (clean show, cut up fallen trees, rake leaves, and the list goes on. Anyway, here is some more information regarding the Basso.
The frame is 54cm c-c for the seat tube and top tube. The chrome is good, the art is pretty good and the paint needs a bit of touching up. Personally, I would not paint this frame/fork set. The cosmetics are too good to replace, in my opinion.
I did a quick cleaning but some more effort should work wonders. Anyway, some more pictures...
Best shots of tubing type. frame and fork...
Campy drops front and back.
Cinelli bottom bracket lug with frame size (54) clearly stamped.
Sorry about the poor pictures. My phone is not the best camera to use or get good results from. Anyway, hope these help with any interests that you might have.
