So just added these to the collection, SLX Daccordi Pursuit bike and a Pinarello Treviso with full 105 grouppo. Anyone know anything about the Treviso and why 105?? Who brought the Pinarello bikes here? Think it's a late 80's bike . Have a look at these...

If I'm not mistaken the Treviso should be a Columbus SL tubed frame. I would say the 105 is not original equipment for that bike. Campag Chorus or Shimano 600 at a minimum would do it justice.

Both very nice bikes.

Some more Daccordi porn! The level of detail on this frame is so good, I may give up riding it just to stare at it.

Right, it is a SL tubed frame however, as far as the groupset goes, I think 105 is original to the bike. I did some scratching on some other forums and it appears there are others like it (with 105 grouppo). The colour scheme is unlike anything I've seen and honestly, I think it's yet to grow on me  :mellow:

OK so after 4 weeks I have my Colnago Master back from painting. I will put all the decals on this weekend and send it back for clear coat. I'm pretty happy with how it has come out. The clear coat will give the candy blue some nice depth. Next is to decide on saddle and bar tape colour. Black rolls with black tape or white rolls with white Cinelli Cork ribbon.... Give me some ideas hubbers.

who painted your frame, I have a Master Piu and Spiral Conic I want to do?

Guy down here in Durban by the name of Michael Brits. His company is called Paz, he does mostly motorcycle custom work. This is the 3rd bike he has done for me..

OK so decals all in place, about 3 hours worth of work all in all. Now just for the embossing on the frame to be painted white and the clear coat. I will post images once I have finished building the bike up over the next few weeks.

I'll trade you some very illegal things for that  :drool:
