...thanks. This one is a sort of metallic graphite too. I can just barely make out the outlines of the old seat tube graphics, and
it looks like Velocals has this era well covered. This one is 24" too, so I'm guessing the Columbus decal was SP. It's really too bad about the paint damage on mine, because it looks like pretty solid Imron, but it's scraped off in so many places, with some rust that looks like it's probably traveled under the paint in those webbed blooms that happen, that I figure It'll be easier to paint the whole thing after strip and prep.
