Subject: [CR]Legnnano Track Bike Questions

I recently acquired a restored 60's Legnano track bike and am trying to confirm the accuracy of a few details on the restoration. The first question is about the Model Logo. It is labeled Mod Roma Olimpiade. I have seen this on road bikes but is it accurate for a track bike? Also there is no tubing decal, should there be one and what tubing was used? Any comments about correct componentry would also be appreciated. The bike looks great and has a reasonable mix of period correct bits, but I'm a hardware geek and can't resist tweeking it some more. I'm only the fourth owner of this bike and I have been talking to owner number two who acquired it in 1971 but memory fades after 34 years...he remembers the rides, not the hardware.

Thanks from a new member, Norm Lafleur Ashfield, Ma.

Over a foot of snow on the ground but a very rideable 40 degrees. 24 miles today.
