I bought the Tommasini frame in 2007 from its original owner. Then I searched and bought all the parts and built the bike to how it looks today.
I have ridden the bike for about 4000km. It was never ridden in the snow, rain or at a race. Never crashed either.
The bike has always been in our flat, but due to us downsizing it's time to find a new owner for her.
I bought the Tommasini frame from the original owner in 2007 and then collected all the parts and assembled it myself.
I have ridden the bike a total of about 4000km, never in snow or rain; I have not raced it. And I have never had an accident with it.
I always keep the bike in my apartment. Now my bike collection has to be downsized and the Tommasini unfortunately has to go.
Things to do:
Work needs done on the paint chips to make this the perfect Café Racer or even the bike to take on an Eroica Retro Fondo.
I bought the frame exactly as it is today. With all the scratches and paint chips. I did try to contact Tommasini for an appraisal for my frame, but they never answered.
A service wouldn't be a bad idea, for peace of mind. I rode the bike a couple of days and it rides like a dream.
Things that could still be done:
You could have the paint imperfections done if you want the perfect fair-weather/cafe bike or maybe even an Eroica bike. I bought the frame as it was, with paint chips and attempted repairs. I then asked Tommasini whether a restoration was an option. Unfortunately, they never replied, so I left it as it was.
If you want to be absolutely sure that you can ride off without worrying, you could do a complete service. I took the bike for a spin the other day and everything is running perfectly.
