Mostra Scambio Novegro 2024
A few of the things I saw.
Late 40s Frejus
1931 and 1938 Gerbi. The 38 sold.
Beltramo
A small builder, Giuntelli. Never heard of them before.
Lovely sign
Even better sign. About a meter tall.
1976 SR. I also saw a 1973 and 1978.

The only bike I considered buying, and was really close to it. The crank/pedals/stem/bars/levers were worth the price of admission, but it is really a well-made frame. An early/mid-50s Dora (the explora) out of Torino. Never heard of them before, but oh so cool.

do not have a name/number for this combination of Agrati feature & nozzle cut
the nozzle cut is also employed on Agrati patterns "ROMA" & "SPORT"

Lots of bikes show up. The depth of Italian industrial history is interesting.

Pretty darn early Gran Sport. Wheels look pretty worn down but the rest of it looks all there.

I was just curious. Here , it seems , bikes are down in value while parts , like that 1st gen SR derailleur , are stable if not up. I was just curious if it is that way there as well. Thank you , Joe

Also, you can walk up to a vendor with 30-40 NR rear and front derailleurs. Then there are a half dozen vendors like that. So a high supply will drive down price compared to here. But an Ambrosio stem there is more coveted there due to the Bianchi connection. It sells higher than the US.

That looked fabulous!
Where in Italy was that, and is it a once a year thing, or more often?
It looks like an amazing venue for a swap meet.
Thank you, for the report!

Milano. February and November, but everyone agrees the February event is best. More vendors, more buyers. Imola has one that goes around the entire length of the track, 5km, in September. Better than Novegro November, not as good as Novegro February.
