Tanks! your's great to! the only 2 Tomas bikes I've found on internet are yours and this other one: https://picasaweb.google.com/1172891744...
As far as I am concerned, it has nothing to do with Tommasini bikes.. If it does, and you have more info about it, it will be nice to hear about!

yea i remember asking the L'EROICA group what Tomas was. They said it was pre Tomassini, same builder. His own build before getting big. Who knows. The frame I have shows great signs of detail, campagnolo drop outs and the works. Its nice. Rare and Columbus :) haha. where did you find yours?

Second hand, in a spanish bike forum. The past owner took it from ebay and did not know nothing about the brand. Mine has generic drop outs, and its in columbus Aelle, which is the cheapest one. Anyway, I love it!

As for the Tommasini story, I also heard about it, but in bikeforums.net (http://www.bikeforums.net/archive/index...) they say it was Thomas, not Tomas. Besides that, someone there says it's from a Padova's framebuider who worked for Vetta, and built these Tomas for some local shops in the 80s.
By the way, who knows..it's always fine having an unknown story frame and try to discover the more about it!
cheers and let's hope some other Tomas appears around here :D
