Masi from middle 80s? -- Who made this bike?
Hi folks!
I come from Germany. I have got a frame set with Masi Pantos and I would like to get more informations about it.
Is this a "Nuova Strada"?
Some pictures will follow. I am new here. Therefore I am not able to post photos or URLs.
Thanx in advance
Dirk

I'm no Masi expert, but I've never seen one with Panto's like that - or BB shell cutout. Beautiful looking frame though.

Beautiful work on a beautiful frame. Are you going to put decals on it?

That appears to be a Nuova Strada, and per https://bhovey.com/Masi/Nationality.htm:
"The same goes for the Gran Corsa and Nuova Strada... they were US bikes, but were never built here. They were built in Italy (again, probably by Billato or Mondonico), imported as bare frames, then numbered, painted and decaled here by Jim Allen."
So it's not a "Masi Masi", but is a nice enough frame.
