Dave Patrick writes, when referring to whether engraved Masi bars are "proper" or "correct" for a 1974 bike, anymore than say, Cinelli: So, perhaps I'm stirring the pot this morning, which can be a good thing in my mind, so heap it on, my fellow CR members. What say you?

The Masi stamped bars are desirable, but the harder part to locate is the M yellow foil stamped Masi 3ttt saddle.

And to think we removed them as most customers thought them an unknown quantity, and wanted a Cinelli #3 instead. Probably there is more than one sitting on a Nishiki International, in Southern California right now, sitting protected from age by a Spenco gel foam saddle cushion cover...
