Hello! Trying to come out of the red after another year of medical school. All items are in North London, pickup is very welcome, but I'm happy to post too. More pictures are available on my flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/96153270@N00
Up for grabs is a 1995 Basso superlight, in quite a dashing purple. Seat tube 57cm c-c, 58 c-t, top tube 56 c-c. From what I can gather Basso Superlight tubing is very similar to 90s Columbus SLX.

This frame has been been dry stored for a very long time, but some of the paint on the fork crown has chipped away, and there's a tiny bit of surface rust there, as well as a bit on the right chain stay, on the brake bridge, and on the front mech braze on. Apart from those chips, the rest of the paint is in pretty good nick, very few actual scratches and no dings. Basso dropouts. Tight clearances. 27.2 seatpost, Italian BB.
