Got this built up & just wanted to share. I was looking for a Roadini but this happened to pop up in my size & the price was too good to resist. Can't speak highly enough about it. Wish I liked the Gunnar "Star Wars" logo more but that's my only complaint. Very happy to have a tiny piece of Waterford history.

Gorgeous. Thanks for posting. What's your gear range if I may ask? What brakes are you using?

Having owned both a Crosshairs and a Roadini, I think you made the good choice. Enjoy it!

I have a 46/30  with an 11-28 cassette. The brakes are Shimano CX-50s which I've always had good luck with. I snapped a photo but these are measured 38s. The chain stays are the only section that's remotely tight. Maybe room for a 40 or 42? Either way, I usually prefer 32-38 for road so this is perfect for my purposes. IMG_5104.jpg

Holy smokes, looks like we found similar Waterfords around the same time. Similar frame color too! Now I feel vindicated for this morning's purchase of blue cotton tape to pair with that graphite/champaign color. Looks sharp!

I love that Waterford. My size too! Did you have it made or found it second-hand? Do you happen to know the stack/reach on it?

Miraculously I found it second-hand on eBay. The seller accepted my offer for just the frameset and it's been hands-down my favorite bike to ride. I'll share a separate post with all the details later next week when it's more dialed.
