1999 Marin San Marino

Archived: Frame: TIG-welded · Fork: Marin · Columbus Brain, aero crown

• Inspect the complete frame for cracks, dents, distortion, heavy abrasion, suspicious paint differences or evidence of a previous repair.
• Inspect the fork crown, blades, dropouts and visible steerer area. Check that it is straight, securely installed and free of cracks or impact damage.

Archived: Group: Campagnolo Veloce · Shifters: Campagnolo Veloce Ergo · Front derailleur: Campagnolo Veloce · Rear derailleur: Campagnolo Veloce · Crankset: Campagnolo Veloce · Bottom bracket: Campagnolo Veloce · Rear cogs: 9-speed · Chain: Campagnolo Veloce, 1/2 x 3/32"

• Shift through every available gear under light load. Hesitation, skipping or inconsistent indexing can reflect wear, damage, poor adjustment or mismatched replacement parts.
• Measure chain wear with a compatible gauge and inspect chainring, cassette or freewheel teeth. A new chain does not rule out wear in the remaining drivetrain.
• Turn the cranks slowly, feel for rough bearings and check for side-to-side play. Inspect crank arms, chainring bolts and pedal threads for looseness or damage.

Archived: Brakes: Campagnolo Veloce dual pivot brakes, Campagnolo Veloce levers

• Inspect pads and braking surfaces, check the complete cable or hose path, and confirm both controls feel consistent and return cleanly.

Archived: Rims: Ambrosio Excellence · Hubs: Campagnolo Veloce · Front tire: Vittoria Action HSD

• Spin both wheels and watch for side-to-side and vertical movement. Check spoke tension, rim condition and hub play.
• Inspect both tire casings for cuts, cracking, plugs, bulges or exposed threads and confirm the installed sizes are safe for the rims and available frame and fork clearance.

Archived: Headset: Campagnolo Veloce · Handlebar: Cinelli Touch-E · Stem: Cinelli Sesamo · Seatpost: Alloy · Saddle: Selle Italia Trimatica · Pedals: Not included

• Apply the front brake and rock the bike to check for headset play or notchiness. Inspect the stem, handlebar and clamp zones, then confirm every fastener and control is secure.
• Check that the seatpost moves for adjustment and that the saddle, post and clamp hold securely without cracks, severe corrosion or damaged hardware.
