Great paintjob, usually the guys paint a bike like a car so you cant read the Pantos anymore. Everything looks like new, but the seatpost. A bikers work never ends.

Thanks dude, any idea where I can get a proper head badge and cable plugs from?

Well, I just contacted Marco Gios. He wrote, that they offer these Rubbers again BUT they cost 30 € a pair and had to be picked up in Italy! A Friends of mine is a Gios-Collector and down in Italy 2/3 Times a year so he can pick them up then. The Head-shield is something more difficult. I got one spare, but it needs some TLC. It was drilled of the frame so bigger rivets could be necessary. Any Interest?

Certainly could be interesting in the head badge depending on price & photos.

Thanks

Re:

Doesn't look too bad, recoverable I think. What sort of cost are you thinking?

 

[Giosgremlin]

4 pints + postage ... The pints when we ever met, maybe in Italy on a Retro ride like L'Eroica or an Anniversay Run of Gios. PM your adress to me

Re:

A very big thank you to Michael for sending me an original head tube badge. I've also just purchased a San Marco regal titanium saddle with black leather, that should finish it off.

Re:

Now with new saddle and bar tape, original head badge stuck on as a temporary for the Gios records.
