This one looks similar to Mark L's. I think it is in team Mapei colours. Probably from the late 90s or very early 2000s.
At $850 it is a good buy. Too small for me.

How tall a person would a 52inch frame fit? It might be good for my hipster older daughter.

Assuming you mean 52cm and not 52 inches and assuming we are talking the top tube length, you could reasonably assume I could ride it (as that is my Avanti's size) and I am 166cm.

At a towering 168cm or 5ft 6 and 3/4 in the old money. My bike is a 52cm

Thanks guys, if I was a real cyclist I'd know this stuff. Sadly the bikes gone already.

You and Mark could have had matching bikes to go with your matching jerseys Amy!
