Love the color. Love the box-lining. My size. Tempted, but I have too many other balls in the air at the moment...
Curious: Headset included? Swiss threading? Shipping extra or included in that price? Seat post size (guessing 26.8)? I assume this has fairly generous tire clearance, but do you know how much rubber can fit in there?

@gaucho777 questions
gaucho777 The seat post is 25.7mm ID. The bike has run 28mm tires in the past. I do not think 30s or 32s would work.
No headset included. BB is Italian threaded.
Fork is also Italian threaded.

Lovely.
I have been calling mine a 1980 Mondia Super (531SL), but differences in fork crown from yours make me think I need to investigate the year again. My serial # also is on the seat tube, 803542. I would rate the ride quality on a par with my Merckx, DeRosa, ADs.

That's gorgeous. Love the color. Love the ride quality of mine. If this were the right size, I'd be very tempted right now. Love it!

There's some serial number info out there, but it's not comprehensive. Below, Lugnut provided a great production timeline, but without threading info. His Mondia's seatpost is 25.8.

The seatpost I have in there measures 27.0 mm, but always thought it was 26.8mm(). It did slip a bit, so I shimmed it. I believe it to be a late 80's frame & it is 531 Spl Lightweight tubing...
