Claud Butler Milano rescued....

Idiot chavs.

It was probably thrown in some bushes somewhere

Might be worth a nose around, you never know. Its a smart looking bike, even with the bad acid trip tape

I did look around the station car park and bins etc but no sign of it.

The dodgy bar tape is some I picked up cheap a good while ago and used it to practice wrapping the drops. I haven't wrapped any drops for a few decades

Might be worth using a bolt rather than a qr...?

It had a bolt, the scrote came prepared with Allen keys!

I might epoxy the bolt this time

Pitlock do security skewers.

Definitely the same frame as the 2005 (yellow) & 2006 (red) Milano, but slightly different finishes.

Ps, I'm pretty sure I've got one of the 3K carbon forks somewhere in the loft if you're interested?

Thanks fur the info and offer. I think mine is a year or two earlier than those. I quite like the Campagnolo group set it came with before the switch to Shimano.
Thanks for the offer of the forks but I think I will stay with the original ones, cheers.
