    Fair play, that's the spirit LeoD.

    It's a Cinzia Bombi (single speed). Bought in Euro Cycles a couple of years ago. Never got the use it deserved, I'd say she hasn't even clocked 80km.

    Per previous request, I'll post the measurements this evening.

    Measurements as promised:

    Top tube: 58cm (centre to centre). That may seem misleadingly large, but not so because of the curved handlebars.
    Seat tube: 49cm (bottom bracket to seat clamp)

    There's also about 14cm adjustment of the seat post length/height?? (I don't know if the same argument applies to seat posts as sock length/height ;))

    I neglected to put a closing date on this auction, so out of fairness and transparency, I'll keep it open for another 24 hours and close it off at midday tomorrow.

    So, hammer in hand, going once .......................
