javadude Posted July 17, 2012 Share Ciocc, prononced..... Church, have recently relaunched their once popular San Cristobal frame. Columbus tubing, chrome rear stays, lugs and fork.......priceless. Enquiries welcome. PM for more details. Those are nice. The original founder and former owner of Ciocc is still making frames today under his own name.

slowtwitch Posted July 18, 2012 Share I can't believe it's another year since I last visited this thread. How big of a mission is it to have a fork re-cromed?My Pinarello Pista is taking a hammering riding next to the beach And what do I do regarding the Columbus decals on the sides of the fork?

Chro Mo Posted July 28, 2012 Share Okay: it was quiet at work, so I read the entire thread over two nights. Suffice it to say that I am very impressed at the quality of the bikes as well as the knowledge of bicycles presented here. I hope this thread carries on growing, and that more people recognize the beauty and magic of these bikes.

georgev Posted July 28, 2012 Share hey Guys, only found this thread today, check out my latest project at https://www.bikehub.co.za/gallery/album/1116-rossin-prestige-retro-italian-steel/ right here on the hub. Its a beautiful bike with new gruppo that rides like it's on rails. Whenever the weather is peachy she takes me for a ride over Chappies and Suikerbossie and back - man it's good. Every other bike I pass by looks like a plastic tin can that will be in the trash 5 years from now. I am curently building up a stunning Merckx stada OS for the wife - will post some pics of this baby in the albums section as soon as she is done, managed to save the original decals and paintjob - she is just awesome. Steel is real baby! Chro Mo 1 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/46935-retro-bicycle-thread/page/81/#findComment-1729038 Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgev Posted July 28, 2012 Share Thanks man. Keep an eye out for this retro golden bullet on next years Argus. She is going to be teaching all those ridiculously expensive carbon machines a thing or two about riding in style. All I need to find now is an old team Rossin jersey, some matching silver/gold lycra bibs and a sony walkman and I am set to do some serious damage. Yeah baby!
