It looks more like a 57 to me. I think the frame started life as a '83ish 980 or Alloro level bike which would likely make it TreTubi Columbus and falck stays. The eatpost looks like a Laparde or SR it might be blue but doesn't look special to me. Mix of Chorus w/ CdA Delta brakes/ Too bad about the broken QR pin, if one had a really beat up or broken lever you might be able to repair it.

I don't think I would spend $500 plus shipping for it with inspecting in person.

OH yeah drilling Hollos in the frame for the brakes I love that.


This is very tempting, I have an Ashtabulah crank lying around a need good frame for
