My 'new' CSI is back...

This is the one that broke where the seat stays were attached to the seat lug. Serotta repaired it under warranty after 12 years!

All I can say is 'stunning'! The color turned out great and the finish is as smooth as silk. Will be building it up this week and hope the rain goes away by the weekend.

Here's a preliminary pic. More to follow after the build.

Thanks for the kind words. When I had this bike refurbed in 2007 ( new top tube cable stops and a full repaint ), the original midnight blue color was no longer available. Serotta sprayed the closest color they had to it, but it was a really dark, dark blue. You could really only tell it was blue when in direct sunlight. This color is closer to the original color of the bike as when first purchased.

"M-lovin' it!
