Description
U
p for auction is a vintage
Chesini Recordman Time Trial
frame from the mid to late 1980s.
The frame is a vintage steel frame in slightly used and very good condition.
This frame is most likely unique as it is a "Mod. Adamek". Adamek used to distribute Chesini frames in Vienna in the 1970s-90s and as he had a good relationship to Mr Gabriele Chesini Senior, Chesini also made special frames for him, according to his wishes. There is a "MOD. ADAMEK" metal plate on the top tube, I don't think that many other Chesini Recordman frames like this exist.
The tubing is Columbus Cromor. The frame is filet brazed! For some reason Adamek wanted the frame to be equipped with a Mavic Aluminium fork.
The color is a classic Ferrari red, my camera has troubles in showing the color correctly.
The frame is for 700c (28 inches) rear wheels and 26 inches front wheels.
According to the preowner the frame has not been in use, but there are in my opinion minor signs of use. The shifter mounts are in mint condition and appear to be unused, but it is possible that a rear wheel has once been mounted. However, I would judge the frame as excellent and close to unused with minor signs of storage. There are a few small paint chips and from storage (bottom bracket lug, right chain stay near rear derailleur, seat pin binder). There are of course no cracks or dents.
The chrome is in excellent condition. There is no oxidation on this frame.
The frame is marked at the underside of the bottom bracket lug with "57".
Measurements:
The frame is, due to its geometry, not easy to classify. Please judge yourself: It is marked with "57". The frame is about 58.5cm tall (center - top) and 59.5cm long (center - center). Italian threaded (70mm BB lug). Rear spacing is for 7 speed (126mm).
As a description is always influenced by a personal opinion I made a couple of supersize pics that help you to judge the frame yourself.

Shipping
Worldwide shipping were possible! I combine shipping costs!
I am located in Vienna, Austria, EU and ship from here. Although all parcels go by airmail, sometimes it can take a bit longer than expected. An average parcel, e.g. to the USA, takes about 10-14 business days to arrive. Sometimes it can also take 3-4 weeks. There are customs and security checks involved that sometimes delay the shipment.
Especially smaller parcels (up to 1kg), get in many cases upgraded at my costs to priority parcel mail (depends on the weight and destination). Still there is no guaranteed shipping time.
Carriers I use are the Austrian Post, DHL (large parcels) and sometimes smaller carriers like Hermes and GLS. In your country the parcels will be delivered with a local carrier (e.g. USPS in the USA).
