Yes, Cher but the Urani was such a special find because it was virtually brand new. The Olimpica is of course out of the box. So many machines not enough space, haha

Yes indeed Mike, and had to get the seller to remove the old asbestos for me. As you can see it was flaking off and posed a risk. If customs saw it we would never have seen it again.

What a beauty. When I saw the photos I assumed it was a tiny home machine. The group is full size.

Hi Paul, Yes, I have looked at comparison photos and it looks like the single group is the same as the 2 group and it would make little sense to make two different sizes. I have been looking at the parts breakdown for the group and have now worked it out.

I imagine the lever cam will need to be kept well lubricated to prevent wear.
