Any Mondonico Aficionados?
I recently acquired a Mondonico Futura Leggero with a monostay seat stay. I’ve been looking for an EL-OS with this design for about 10 years but haven’t found any in my size. I’ve owned several Futura Leggero frames in that time, but this is the first one I’ve come across with the monostay design? I’d like to know if this is a rare Mondonico or if I just haven’t been looking hard enough. The previous owner didn’t know anything about the history of it.

Great looking bike, be sure to add it to this thread: https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-v...mondonico.html
And stolen from that thread (with thanks to steelbikeguy ) is a Bicycle Guide article on the EL-OS model:
