There's no stamping on the chain stay or bottom bracket indicating frame size or year of manufacture.
The decals are super thick (like stickers) not like the flush decals that come on regular C'dales. It's almost the consistency of "puffy paint", kinda plasticky per se
I rode it reluctantly and it's too tall on the stand over (I had lean it way over at the stop lights) and as you can see the seat is as far down and it barely allows me to reach the pedals.
Scroll down to page 9 in the 1989 catalog and it shows a picture of the team version.

I'll swap you. Check out my '87 SR500 with factory customs graphics. Measuring the traditional way c-t-c, this bike is 54cm seat tube and 56cm top tube. Same 105 BioPace group as on your bike.
