I was looking at a Limongi time trial frame and fork the other day and wondering if the list has any info, or if it is on topic. It is decaled as "Limongi". It is Columbus SL or SP. It is lugged and has Columbus fork ends. It takes a 650C front wheel. It has top tube braze on's for the brake cable and shifter bosses on the down tube. The rear dropouts are track ends but with a derailleur hangar.

I am thinking that it might be around the time of the 84 Olympics influenced by the "Huffy" funny bikes, but it doesn't have all the aero tricks like shifters on top of the down tube or hidden cables. It also might be later and made for triathalon?

I have searched the archives and read that Limongi was at Paris Sport, did he build after he left, or were there bikes built with his name on them?

Thanks
