I still have my old Marinoni w/ Columbus SLX that replaced the team-issued bike that I'm trying to turn back time on, so that will have to make do until I either find a trade or make the decision to earnestly look for a frame builder to take the shrinkage on.
I'm still learning the forum, so I'm slow with the postings to make sure I don't violate any standards that I'm still not familiar with.
seriously check out Classic and Vintage and it is worth it upgrade your membership so you can use the for sale forum
