Is there any interest in compiling a registry of Olmo frame numbers - I note that both Dave Martinez and Steve Maas both have 50s Olmos. I also have two early ones - an Italian tourer with Campagnolo twin lever gear, flat bars, brazed-on brake levers, concealed expander bolt, half chaincase and scruffy original paint probably 1940s and a wonderful track frame which I think is 50s and has the frame number M 241. The number on the earlier machine I do not have to hand at present. How many other CR members have Olmos? I am more than happy to set a registry up and keep it running. And whilst we are on Italian frames does anybody fancy doing a Legnano registry? I have two of these too - a sadly badly crashed (not me, it was bought crashed) road example I think from the 50s and a track frame which is I think 60s.
