Benotto model needed?
Hi,
First time posting. I have an old Benotto (purchased used in the late 80s) that I'd like some information on. Built in Italy or Mexico? Year? The bike is black and silver, and has a heart cutout with the numbers 2683 on the bottom bracket. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hello mannyzr Welcome to the forums. Can you post some good pics of your bike? Include closeups of any decals on the bike.
