Weeks ago BianchiGirl pointed out that the brake pads were backwards. They have been corrected since then.

I wonder what year they changed from the origInal Super (no chrome fork, just the clover leaf panto in the crown and no Colnago on the stay caps... my 1977 is “original” I think, though it DOES have the brake cable guides and shifter bosses, but no FD boss).
Love the purple.

I think in 1978 they added the Panto on the top of the seat stays. In 1979. They went from a cylinder to a spindle shaped chain stay bridge and the following year they swapped from above to below the bottom bracket for cables.
