Thanks. Steel frame, unlike my aluminum 979. Interesting, especially the rear DO's, which may be the only Vitus thing about it?? The glimpse of the head badge looks like nothing I recall seeing on a Vitus. Indeed Vitus made tubing, but I am not knowledgable enough to say whether it was purely a proprietary product, or if it was available to other constructors.

Breezer Bikes made a special presentation bike for Pope Francis. Hard to top the special head badge made for the Pontiff.

Mercury Cycle. Obscure. Can you guess where it is from?
They have not been made for a while.
