Rauler Frame - £175
55.5cm top tube and seat tube 70's Columbus SL Steel Frame.
Paint is in excellent nick, including the purple halequinning, chrome is also in fantastic condition. The decals are somewhat worse for wear, however new decals are available and they are above the paintwork so can easily be removed.
The lugwork and pantographing is really beautiful on this frame. The photos don't really do it justice. The BB threads are in perfect condition and the shell has been faced. I had a new tange headset installed by brixton cycles when I first acquired the frame, and I have not ridden it much since (100 miles or so).
From my research about the frame I have learnt that Rauler was a joint venture between two brothers Raul and Reclus Gazzi (who ran a factory which built frames for Colnago) and Ernesto himself. Hence the name "Raul-Er", Raul from the from the first brother and "Er" from Ernesto. They are well regarded frames of equal quality to Colnagos of the same era.
