Description
It speaks for the quality of the frames that Mario Rossin was one of the most skilled frame builders at Colnago before he decided to run his own factory.
In the 1980s he made us familiar with some of the most innovative and most stylish racing bicycles ever.
And this Rossin RLX is certainly one of the best Rossin bicycles of the 1980s.
It features one of the most advanced framesets on the market back then. Columbus SLX tubes feature inner helical reinforcements and were an obvious choice for racing bikes back then. The tubing is in our case connected by nice microfusion lugs, of which the particularly stunning is the massive yet beautifully sculpted bottom bracket. The seat stay caps are by the way also lugged, all resulting in very strong, stiff an fast frameset.
Our Rossin is equipped with the Campagnolo Chorus groupset with the classic "monoplaner" brakes and C-Record headset. The rest is equally fine with Mavic rims, 3ttt cockpit and some brand new parts like the Tufo handmade clincher tyres, white Rolls saddle, hard plated chain etc.
A pure 1980s racer with a great frame, fine parts and pedigree.
