Medici: Retro Modern Road Bike - Excellent!

Description

Medici. Hand built in Southern California in the mid-1980s by master Italian craftsman and former Masi framebuilder Mario Confente. Built with lightweight and lively Columbus SL double-butted steel tubing throughout, includes high quality investment cast lugs, fork crown, and bottom bracket shell. Excellent brazing quality throughout with nice internal brake cable routing on the top tube.
Frame size is 56cm (measured center-to-top), suitable for riders 5’9” to 6’ in height. The entire bike is in excellent condition with no discernible wear on the components. Groupset (derailleurs, crankset, and brakes) is Shimano 600 Tri-color 9 speed which was renamed as Ultregra, just one step down from the top of the line Dura Ace. Wheels are Mavic Cosmos. Nice TTT handlebars and stem.
The bike has been very well maintained with nice paint and decals. The bike just received a full 9 professional tuneup including the following:
Complete set of new Jagwire brake and derailleur cables
Front and rear derailleur adjustment
Front and rear brake adjustment
Front and rear wheel truing
Full drivetrain lubrication
New padded cork handlebar tape
The bike needs nothing and is ready to ride. Now’s your chance to own a vintage Italian-American thoroughbred for the cost of a regular domestic model. Asking 9 or best reasonable offer.
