Once I get my hands on this bike (could be a few more weeks or even months) I will provide more detailed pictures and measurements. Thanks for all your input!

Considering the repaint; the Fork may not be original. I don't know what Oria fork tangs should look like, if indeed it has Oria tubing.

I finally got my hands on the bike, so I'm posting a couple more pictures. The frame is 2.4 kilogram, the fork is 800 grams, so it's not a particularly light frame. Standard British bottom bracket threading, 126mm between the rear dropouts. The parts on it were certainly not original (modern Tiagra wheelset, Sora rear derailer and Sora 3x8 brifters, Exage 500 front derailer, Saccon brakes). Since I'm in Hungary this mystery frame is likely to be of Austrian, German, or Italian provenance. There are no serial numbers on the frame at all.

Looks a lot like a Massi I was considering...fork is different though. IN fact, it just might be me, but the fork doesn't seem to fit the frame design...aftermarket?
Clean it up, repaint it, and get stickers in your own name!

NO IN EVERY RESPECT.
It could be a better quality Asian made frame that's been rattle canned?
