Nishiki Cervino
Recently, I acquired a repainted Nishiki frameset, which I believe to be a Cervino. Does anybody have any pics of a Cervino with the original decals? Thxs.

I just rebuilt my Cervino I acquired frame only in 84. The previous owner stripped the decals sans the Cervino on the TT and "Made in Italy" on the chain stay. Take a look at the following for an original.
Through some research and corroboration with others it was designed by Colnago who was bing imported by West Coast Cycle(WCC) Nishiki and built byy Olmo. If you want more detailed info let me know.

I've been there a few times, and it's one of the nicer places I've skied. On one side you can ski down into Switzerland (Zermatt), the other side into Italy (Breuil-Cervinia).
