I guarantee nobody has this. It's an early Rauler (serial number 7) with Colnago Pantos on the fork tangs (but with Rauler pantos on the fork crowns). I'm guessing that, while pantographing fork crowns and lugs for Colnago, Raul Gozzi helped himself to one of the crowns and tested out his own symbol.




And this. A late 70's prototype/sample for a small company called Echelon that was apparently made by Cherubim, run by Yoshi Konno's brother, and where Yoshi worked during the late 70s, prior to starting 3Rensho. Made by the master or his brother? Either way, it's a pretty nice frame.
