Hey gang, Has anyone ever seen an "identity" tubing decal for the Excel tubing? That is the tubing used in the original Masi Volumetrics I think (slightly out of our time frame but somehow fitting?) as well as in other mostly specialty bikes. I never saw Excel used in production applications. There were a few Giordana (Bellato made) frames using Excel and Gita was the "exclusive importer" which meant next to nothing market wise.. They still have a bunch of that tubing sitting down there (Not cheap though!) Supposed to be super trick tubing.... Comments?
