My CSI

I was lucky to find this frame last summer. It was the color I had been looking for, Pearl White, and it had the steel Serotta fork just like I wanted. Put a new Ultegra 6800 group on along with some Ksyrium SL wheels I had. Excellent ride and performance! SN: CS 52 749, from what I have seen on this thread this must be a 1996 or 1997.

20th anniversary example

Previously passed around here, I still haven't built it up yet since I became it's latest owner about 9 months ago.

CA 54 026 I assume that makes it the 26th out of ??

At this point it's looking like I'll hang some record 9 speed on it, but I've also got a set of dura ace 7800 series that is always tempting since it is one of the better dura ace groups ever made imho.

Nice and I love how good the groupset looks on the white frame!

This is new to me but I am the 3rd owner. Both previous owners are also here on the forum.

I bought this as frame and fork and built it with parts I already had. After a few rides I decided I will keep this one for awhile so I put some new wheels on it. It will eventually end up with a Campy group, but the 105 works for now.

I also have an Ottrott and the ride and handling of this is very similar.

Got it put back together Sunday in time to take a quick first ride - I think this one is going to be special.

New to me, via two previous forum members, 1994 CRL serial number CL 62L 749, which I just built up yesterday from the components that came off of my previous Serotta, which is no longer with us due to a crash, ‘95 or possibly ‘96 CSI CC 60 1198.

Updating mine with pics

Only 20 of these floating around (at most). I wonder how many belong to paceliners?

Serotta Colorado CC 55 357

This Serotta Colorado frame was sold in Germany. The last owner bought it 1991, second hand. Who knows more about this frame, it was custom made? Late 80s? The fork has been in the frame since the beginning. Custom build by Werner Juchem, a German framebuilder. Weight in size 55 cm with Fork, BB and Headset 2475 Gramm. Thank you for help!

Recently acquired a Serotta CSI off of eBay. Here is a photo from the listing since it's better than anything I'll be shooting anytime soon. Serial number is CC57 1517, so I'm guessing it's a '99 or '00.

My first Serotta and it rides amazing, but may be a touch too small for me -- I usually ride a custom-fit 58cm Della Santa. Thinking of swapping out the white saddle and bar tape for either dark brown or black. The Chorus groupset works perfectly fine as this is meant to be more of an "around town" bike for me.

Welcome. That's a pretty one.

This is my second CSi and oddly enough my second custom bought used with 53.5 in the serial number. Going to swap the wheels out, but likely going to remain the same until I decide to throw the Steel fork I picked up here(thanks Keith!).
