Excellent Condition 1989 Rossin 60cm Columbus SL + Campagnolo Chorus + Cinelli
Up for sale is a 1989 vintage Rossin Columbus SL 60cm road bike in excellent condition. Background:
I built up this bike in 1989 as a college student working in a bike shop. I finally had built my dream bike and then I graduated, started the professional grind, and this bike saw little use for the next 34 years. Last season, I took it out of storage and got it ready to ride, only to find that 700x28c @ 100 psi doesn't suit me anymore. If I was into collecting, I'd just keep it, but I've reached a point in life where less is more. Details:
The bike is equipped with a Campagnolo Chorus 7-speed groupset (crankset, brakes, levers, headset, bottom bracket, seatpost, derailleurs). The crank is 175mm, 53/42. The stem is Cinelli XA 120mm with a Cinelli Giro D'Italia 64-40 bar. The only parts that are not original are the rear derailleur jockey pulleys; they are upgraded.
This listing is for the bike less saddle, pedals, and wheels, as shown. This bike had been used with a Dura-Ace 7-speed (Uniglide Freehub) wheelset of the same vintage. That pairing yielded crisp, precise shifts with the Capagnolo 7-speed indexing so finding a compatible wheelset should be straightforward. That wheelset with Matrix ISO-C rims and new(ish) 700c X 28 gatorskins is available for another $300.
There are only minor cosmetic issues with the bike, and I've tried to capture those in the photos. You will not be disappointed in the condition of this bike. Shipping:
Buyer pays USPS shipping.
Seller shipping note as 2023-12-02: I don't believe what I'm seeing estimated below for shipping cost estimates. I'll update the listing when I have better information. Perhaps my estimated dimensions are off. I'm getting a bike box from a local dealer this week so will dial it in better. I will refund any overage paid for shipping.
