Delgado Posted December 20, 2013 Author Posted December 20, 2013 Just bought this today.Pristine condition, Dura Ace 7400.I'm open to offers!Stunning!!Whats size is that......58cm CTT??
HeyYou Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 55cm c2c seat tube54cm c2c top tube I think I paid too much for it, R10k, but it's in pristine condition, with Shamals, a panto'd seat post and the kevlar saddle is just too nice. weighs in at 8.5kg (so ex owner tells me) The owner (ex) bought it new in '93 and he's not ridden it much. He lives overseas for 8 months, here for 4 and prefers his mtbs here, roads just too dangerous he says. He rides other bikes when he's overseas. My other MO is a slightly later model, has the seat stays going into the seat lug, I think it's a '95. That one I have Record 8spd, with Deltas, I think the last generation, about '94. I need to stop buying Nago's now, I have 8 of them and I'm broke!
HeyYou Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 (edited) Mind you, I need to stop buying bikes, period! 6 in the last 6 weeks. Used to be a hobby, then a passion, now I think a COMPULSION!!! Edited December 20, 2013 by heyyou Chro Mo 1

quintonb Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Damn, that's a very sweet ride. Very, very nice. Not easy to get them in such good condition. 6 bikes in the last 6 weeks... Lol and I thought I had a problem... They say the first step in recovery is acknowledging that you have a problem.... Lol. Chro Mo and HeyYou 2
HeyYou Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 I love and have heaps of them as well.........the Kings Horses they are!! Yeah, they really are beautiful and the ride is fantastic, but then I think most of the high end Italian bikes of the 80s and 90s (steel) were like that. But they're all different. My Tommasi Super Prestige has a really short wheel base, so is a real hill climb or sprint machine, whereas my Daccordi(s) have much longer wheel bases and are real 100km bikes.

I'm lucky I live on a farm, so have the space, or the storage anyway. I think I've got more bikes that my LBS, I think about 65 know, though only about 20 are ridable, the others in various stages of completion. Chro Mo 1

HeyYou Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Built up bikes are stacked upside down in a small room, 4 x 4 m, but the majority, frames, bars, wheels, are in a BIG container, used to be a helicopter hanger (not mine, unfortunately).
Climate Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Hey heyyou, I'm sure there's more than just a couple on this forum, that will gladly help you with that addiction ... so is there a Nago 58/59 frame taking up more than it's fair share of space in that hanger? HeyYou 1
DJR Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 I love and have heaps of them as well.........the Kings Horses they are!! Like that
