I had the same model I bought as new in 1992, gave it to a nephew last year. If it had been a better fit, I would still have it. These bikes have a really nice ride, and this one looks to be in fine shape at a nice price. I had to fudge the fit, but I very much enjoyed riding this bike.
There is not a lot of info to be found, but it seems the tubing is Colombus Aelle.

^ Correct the blue ones were Aelle.
The red ones were SL. The one I had was a nicely built bike.

I like how it has the speed limiting drivetrain!
Cool conglomeration of parts. rear brake matching?

That’s a sweet deal. I’m tapped out and not looking for another project. You see, I’m trying to talk myself out of this. I like the color and graphics package. Heck, I’d pay $20 just for that nice pearl Benotto tape. GLWS.

As for this: if it has a 26.8 post, I'd say yes, that's Aelle

I have to say the details look a lot more (higher quality) than I'd expect an Aelle or Zeta frame to include.
Here's a quote from T-Mar about the typical seat posts for SL (SP) and Zeta:
"...typically 27.2mm for SL and 26.6mm for Zeta. Now, some manufacturers did ream out the seat tubes so they have to stock less sizes of posts and it's a fairly common practice on SP tubesets (which is 01mm thicker than SL) but I have never heard of this being done on Zeta."
He and others have also said that Aelle was typically a 26.8 since that seat tube was plain gauge with 0.8 wall thickness and Zeta was 0.9 (SL was 0.6 in the unbutted top section of the seat tube and SP was 0.7)

These were Swiss manufactured by Royal. The euro market Royal top model were blue, red or silver using Columbus SL.
