Hey Chas:
?Are you inferring from that fast back stylistic treatment that
Freschi made that bike? I am not sure that's a safe assumption
as a few others have used that "sleeved" plug fastback approach,
but... who knows.
So is the progression:
Pogliaghi -> Freshi -> Rossin -> Basso Bros?

Nice frame... that poses the usual question: is it a real pogliaghi? I suppose the answer to that question is, it all depends on how you view this kind of thing. It probably rides nice, whatever else you could say about it.
I wouldn't pay 1500 for it..but that's just me. Maybe 700?
