What a beautiful tandem. And not disparaging this bike or the seller in the least...it doesn't LOOK late 1950s to me. The paint and decals are sooo nice...and so many of the parts updated...both admitted in the listing and not...Crane derailleur, drilled Mafac lever, Campagnolo Superleggera pedals. What about the bike do those more experienced clue into to conclusively date the bike?

Thanks in advance for the education,
