a 1986 or 1987 model, and most likely a Corsa Extra.  The frame tubing sticker says Columbus MXL, which appears to be incorrect as the tubing isn't oval like MXL tubing should be.  My best guess is Columbus SLX.  There are no downtube braze on's, but it has cable stops for bar end shifters or brifters (aftermarket?).  The paint can best be described as a brilliant metallic blue\/black.  It's

The fork is the original straight blade, steeply raked, all chrome Colnago fork. It features the Colnago name and clover on each side of the sloped crown. The paint is otherworldly. It's loosely Colnago's Art Decor AD10 paint (which refers to Colnago's art series in this shade of blue). The paint is metallic and lustfull, with lots of fades and blends.  Words simply do not do it justice.  Many of the fine details are unique. The non-drive side of the top tube playfully displays three colored clovers. On the opposite side of the top tube is Ernesto Colnago's signature. The stays highlight the chrome with multi colored transitions and clovers.  The fork is the sought after straight blade Colnago Precisa fork.  The top of the top tube differs from many other Art Deco's of similar paint scheme.  Most have an artsy rendition of a bicycle rider, while this one has the Colnago clover and some geometric patterns.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFRAME SIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eThis Small\/Medium 51cm frame will fit someone roughly 5ft to 5ft 6.

Technically, I bought the bike used, but I am original owner after Mavic.\" \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eSize \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eLitespeed size: 57cm (based on the virtual seat tube length, measured from the center of the bottom bracket shell to the point where the virtual top tube meets the centerline of the seat tube extending into the seat post region)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eEffective top tube: 56.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eSeat tube: 57cm center to top of seat tube\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e167mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eHead angle: 73.5 degree\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eSeat angle: 73 degree\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003echainstay length: 406mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eBB drop: 7.1cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eSeatpost needed: 27.2mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eFork: Reynolds Ouzo Pro integrated Headset\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eHeadset: Cane Creek IS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eSeatpost clamp: Campagnolo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eWeight: frame + fork 1348 grams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eFrame number: 77262-57\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e*see full geometry sheet at end of photos*\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eThe frame and fork have zero damage, dents, cracks, bends, etc.  If you stripped the paint from the frame and gave it a quick buffing, it would be essentially pristine.  The frame's paint itself was done with the goal of looking good for one season of support, and thus has chips from where it contacted the support car's racks as well as other spots.  The paint is a piece of history, and it shows the battle scars from the caravan transport and racing.  The fork, chainstay decals, and headtube badge which were all spec'd as stock from Litespeed are in near mint condition with only a few light marks here and there on the fork.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Litespeed","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53194707894412,"sku":"9778","price":999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0785\/5144\/9740\/files\/3rensho_super_record_export_aero_custom_road_bike_dura_ace_1987_1011__48937.1596248165.1280.1280.jpg?v=1791221319"},{"product_id":"1992-spectrum-cycles-tom-kellogg-road-bike-64cm-x-59cm-new-joe-bell-resto-nos-parts-purple-white-record-da-10sp-henry-james-dogbone","title":"1992 Spectrum Cycles \/ Tom Kellogg Road Bike: 64cm x 59cm - NEW Joe Bell Resto \u0026 NOS Parts - PURPLE \u0026 White -  Record \/ DA 10sp - Henry James Dogbone","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium; color: #ff0000;\"\u003e** Portland local pickup special is $2400**\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eFeast your eyes on this classically designed, custom built Ishiwata \/ Columbus SL out of Tom Kellogg's Spectrum Cycles workshop in Pennsylvania.

It appears to be built in 1978 or 1979, identified by the Columbus decal which changed to red border in 1980 (Andy told me it was late 1970's to very early 1980's).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"CENTER\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eIt has a number of curious features; The downtube shifter braze ons are elevated on top of the downtube for aerodynamics.  It has a vertical plate brazed to the top of the tube with traditional shifter mounts attached to it, so you can use standard shifters.  The rear dropout is drilled for a Campagnolo Porta-Catena chain rest which was not done by Andy (you can ride without one too, it's just two tiny holes in the dropout).  The rear derailleur cable stop is brazed directly to the dropout, \"because it was cool\" in Andy's words.  The chainstay bridge is boxed and massive, \"because beefy was in\".  The lugs are filed very thinly and into deadly-looking points, with round cutouts.  Sloping fork with long tangs and cutouts.  It has a chainrest peg, and a pump peg oddly.

That’s why it’s known as a women’s bike in the U.S., but the mixte style is popular all over the world among men and women, and there are good reasons for that. The lower stepover height makes sense for anybody who doesn’t want to swing a high leg over. It makes it easier to get on and off the bike, especially with a tall load of groceries or a child in back. If you have bad hips from a lifetime of moguls or plain worn-out joints, it’s necessary. Most mixtes are cheap bikes, made for light-duty use, and aren’t stiff enough or strong enough for touring or trail riding, for instance. The Betty Foy\/Yves Gomez is.The stout down tube and the extra set of seat stays make it a top-notch, all-around everything bike.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eThe Betty was Riv's original design, and when they found some of their (overly) male customers couldn't be seen riding a bike with cute heart decals and a girl's name they took the same frame and repainted it to suit the aesthetics of a prohibition era man.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eSizing! At some point during the run, Riv changed from a four size system to the current 3 size system for its mixties.  This one is one of the later models and thus the largest of the three sizes at 60cm. It \"fits\" smaller than that number would suggest, being a mixtie. Riv provided a pubic bone height range of 82cm to 90cm, which is a pretty limited means of sizing...  But I can estimate this will fit riders very roughly 5ft 9 to 6ft 2 or so.  I have a full geometry chart attached from 2009, as well as the ad stating the new sizing.

So, it's partially built and absolutely never ridden.  It's very close to utterly pristine.

There were a couple variations on the Nervex Masi.  This one features one of \u003cspan\u003ePelà's signatures, a flattened and pointed \"spearpoint\" seatstay cap (others got Masi's standard Italian caps). The other point of variation is fork crowns. Most Nervex Masi's got Masi's usual Fischer crown (like this one has), while a few got a dotted and slotted one sans tangs (was there a name for this crown?).  The brilliantly chromed lugs are lined in gold to match the fade of the unique seat tube decal. They were offered the choice of Reynolds 531 or Columbus butted (though it seems most are suspected 531). Most of these frames were sold in Italy, and a small handful (one site quotes 25 frames) were exported to the US by Velo-Sport of Berkley California.     \u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis frame was professionally restored recently, though I wasn't told by who.
