I suppose there may have been variations in the models, but I have a 1977 model, purchased new. It's a 1020 steel (hi-ten) frame with stamped lugs and drops. An odd mix of French and Japanese parts. French HS/stem specs, but English thread BB. Originally had 27" steel rims, and a horrible saddle. Functional as a hack bike, but no refinement at all.
