I believe this is from the late 90's - close to the 1999 end of Carnielli ownership.
Bottecchia "Reparto Corse" of Columbus Brain tubing.
Components aren't going to help date it, because it was an inheritance, and the frame and loose parts were taken to a shop to be assembled.
Nice stuff, Ultegra 9sp with D-A hubs. Serial 55A276


Bottom bracket is Italian as is the serial number style

I started a thread on it when I got the bike, but it went nowhere - I'm hoping that posting in the brand thread might attract some info.
