Needs some TLC and looks like it has only one chain wheel.

Also, the paint looks to be in less than "great shape" as the seller states
Also, I'd say $700 would be a fair price if this were a Master but, it ain't, so I think you could do better than this bike
Lastly, I usually give people the benefit of the doubt but this seller has stated that this is a Colnago Master in great shape and that it's a 54cm sized frame.....and it's none of those things so there may be other undisclosed issues here
Personally, I'd keep looking, the used bike market is the softest I've ever seen it in 25 years of buying and selling....

Thanks Vitma and @jet sanchEz for your comments and insights. I spent a little more time researching and decided to pass on it. The big patch of bare metal on the top tube near the stem and mismatch of parts are the deciding factors for me. I felt the size was also off but that was fine with me since l fit a smaller size better. In fact, this was the reason it thought about getting it because finding a small frame is more difficult.
Thanks again
Thanks again

There's a Team Raleigh SBDU in Reynolds 753 available on FB Marketplace in San Antonio, TX. And of course, at 57cm it's not my size. Full Campy and even has a number peg.

I know it's not an Alex Singer 
but I always thought these were a nice bike because they slip under the radar, price-wise, and probably quite a nice bike for the money. I believe they are the best thing Takara marketed. Oops! Forgot Takara had a Dura Ace racer as well. Unsure who made these (Kawahara? Mitsui?)
The Tributes had water bottle bosses, brake cable bosses, and shifter bosses which I think) no other Takara bikes had. Seller has been listing this and the price has dropped, I suspect he will accept an offer...

So why is the Tribute decals cockeyed? They look like they were put on by an amatuer, were they put on some years after the bike was sold?
They look normal to me!
If I can ever get rid of some of the stuff I have i'll buy it

In any case, it still seems like a good deal. Looks pretty minty and has new-ish Panaracers.

Thanks for the input. I looked into the fork issue and I think this may have the recalled fork since there is no "B" on the fork crown. Do you think a dealer would replace it at this late date?
In any case, it still seems like a good deal. Looks pretty minty and has new-ish Panaracers.

Look in a local coop and you will likely find a suitable fork to replace. For the record, never had a problem with the death fork at that time!
