1984 Guerciotti GL 7500 SL Competition Columbus SL tubing 54 CM
**SOLD**
Have you ever purchased something and when you unpacked it were totally disappointed. Here is my biggest example. Purchased here over 5 years ago. I unpacked the bike and after first inspection was totally crushed. I have NEVER even added a chain to the bike. Hung it in a corner to remind myself to ask for more pictures and never buy a bike from cell phone pictures (Circa 2016). I have decided to let it go and move on. It was described as an 8 out of 10, here is the actual quote "Some nicks in the paint, but no rust. Aesthetically, I'd call it an 8/10.". Well my opinion is, it is NOT an 8 out of 10.
True there are no dents and there is no rust but the paint is sad. I took 20 photos so please look at the bike and know what you are buying.
Seat Tube is 54 CM Center to Center
Stand Over is 31 inches
I can not edit the title but this is the "7300 Triomphe" not the "7500 Competition".Same Frame different group.
Campy Triomphe, Cinelli cockpit, Mavic wheels and hubs(6 Speed). No saddle No Pedals No chain
$400.00 OBO Plus Actual BikeFlights. PayPal Goods and Services, I will pay the fees.

If that frame has a 54cm center to center seat tube, the top tube should be 55cm center to center. I'm sorry someone was dishonest with you about the condition.

Those Mavic Ceramic rims are the best! I put over 20K miles on a pair - the rear hub wore out, but the rims still look great.
GLWS!

Bump. Really reasonable price on this. I've always liked the look of Triomphe parts. This would be a great candidate for a $100 powdercoat. Then fill in the pantos and windows with some yellow testors and redecal and you'd have a stunner. Or go whole hog with a refinish and you'd get more than just a good looking rider.
I hope you get your money back on it, in spite of the dishonest seller!
