Beautiful Colnago C50 size 54 horizontal TT (which I believe is a 545mm top tube).
A mix of 11 speed Athena (levers and rear mech) and chorus (brake calipers, cranks and front mech). Wheels are nearly new zondas.
All is good working order just not getting the use it deserves.
It's not in perfect condition, has some minor chips etc. There is a crack at the top of the steerer tube, it's been that way since I had it 4 years back and is, I believe, from the previous owner over tightening the stem bolts. When I first had it the headset kept coming lose but I swapped out the steerer bung and that solved the problem. I've been riding it the last 4 years and it hasn't gotten any worse (the bung is correctly positioned inside the stem now too and I use a torque wrench).
It's in Bristol, might be able to courier at buyers expense. Message me for more details.

It's kinda difficult to see. Runs down the seam for 1-2 inch but stops before you get to top cap. Hence I'm pretty sure it was over clamped stem. 17162301955976514668457502935605.jpg It's at the join of the carbon which makes sense, it would be a weak spot for compression. 1716230408645466198282352037262.jpg 17162301955976514668457502935605.jpg
 
TBH if you think it's over priced then let me know, I can be open to offers. I've got 3 road bikes and only need one. I want to clear the space.
