Go bidding crazy, we love Sanninos over here. Plus that's apparently a slightly older model with straight (instead of curvy) sloping top tube and bit different detailing than the ones cruising around Helsinki. And there are quite a few of them here for some strange reason.
"Frame builded by Sannino Cicli in the 80's. Sannino was an Italian factory who build Frames from 1978 to the 1999. Sannino frames are knowed by their well based building, very good products. The frame is a 55 cc and it has a fork for 650c. Bottom Bracket is Italian NOT English. Head tube is 8cm, fork tube is 11,5cm Under the Bottom bracket box is marked on the steel "SANNINO" and on the back there is the typical "S" of this frames. Its in good condition, there are few scratch near the chain, just to be clear. It was builded with Columbus Tubi "Acciaio Speciale" (special steel)."
Everyone and their mother knows about this already but this is what the H Plus Son alu Track frame will eventually look like, with a traditional flat crown steel fork.
The last pic below is what should be the final version which will be supposedly eventually produced in 53/55/57cm sizes. And yes, the geo is real close to the original Cannondale 1992 Track 1000. But no final word on the price yet, though, except that with the welds smooth like those it's not going to be 'cheap'.
Tons of super hot Keirin frames & track components etc. Straight Outta Osaka Japan. While it's true that most of the stuff for sale there is not cheap by any means, the prices are still really good for new parts when compared to the other online or Ebay sellers hawking same stuff.
So now just go and buy plenty of everything, and check out the interesting Parts FAQ and the Staff Picks sections too.
The Tour 2009 had begun and what's going on? My countryman with whom I also share same first name Jussi Veikkanen (Francaise des Jeux) wins the polka dot Jersey at the second stage, which he took away from Alberto Contador himself BTW. And he also made Finnish cycling history by being the first Finn ever to ride in a winner's jersey at any of the big races.
The King of the Mountains! Pure fucking awesomeness !!!
Someone recently emailed me asked about the scene in Moscow but unfortunately I didn't know anything about what's going on within the borders our Big & Mighty neighbor country. Well, today Pavel emailed me this LINK. So yes, they do it on Russia too.
