Description
Please note, due to the pandemic, shipping takes longer as it usually would. Shipping to the USA / Canada takes on average 5 weeks, but in some cases also 8-10 weeks! Also some destinations may be excluded from the parcel mail service for a certain time (mainly exotic destinations).
Up for auction is a vintage Scarpa frame, probably from the mid 1980s. I don't know the exact year of production, this is just an estimate of the period. Such frame geometries are pretty hard to find. They were designed to fit ladies or rather short riders. Scarpa was the brand of an Austrian / Viennese bicycle dealer. He did not manufacture such frames by himself, but they were ordered from Italy. So this frame comes out of one of the production of one of the large frame manufacturers in Italy (e.g. Moser, Bottecchia, Bianchi, etc).
The tubing is Columbus, Tretubi Aelle. The frame is original and not repainted. The frame is only slightly used and shows only tiny signs of use. Also the components that were originally mounted (not included) were close to new, so you can assume that the frame has only be used for a couple of rides. Of course there are no dents or cracks. Also technically the frame is in excellent condition and fully working. Please see pics and judge yourself.
Measurements: The frame is approximately 51cm tall (center - top of the seattube lug), If it would be a standard frame geometry, the center to center measurement would be 1-2cm smaller, depending on the way to measure it. On the bottom bracket lug there is a "50" marking. Approximate c-c top tube length is 54.5cm. Rear spacing is 126mm. Italian bottom bracket lug - 70mm.
As a description is always influenced by a personal opinion I made a couple of supersize pics that help you to judge the frame yourself.

Shipping
I am located in Vienna, Austria, EU and ship from here. Although all parcels go by airmail, sometimes it can take a bit longer than expected. An average parcel, e.g. to the USA, takes about 20 business days to arrive. Sometimes it can also take 6-8 weeks. There are customs and security checks involved that sometimes delay the shipment.
Especially smaller parcels (up to 1kg), get in many cases upgraded at my costs to priority parcel mail (depends on the weight and destination). Still there is no guaranteed shipping time.
Carriers I use are the Austrian Post, DHL (large parcels) and sometimes smaller carriers like Hermes and GLS. In your country the parcels will be delivered with a local carrier (e.g. USPS in the USA).
