A little. There is some light wear marks on the rear rim and the chain rings are a little dirty.

I wonder now if Ben Lawee was trying to cash in on the almost bygone era of fancy Italian bikes that were fast losing to the empty promises of blase' carbon frames.

As long as the fit is good it will stick around for awhile.
What is the size of the frame? Fantastic looking paint scheme, never aware of this one. Lawee always had an interest in striking colors and schemes, many with customized automotive paint origins.
