I am about to check out a late 60's to early 70's Cinelli SC. The current owner bought it used in the early to mid 70's and described it as an early 70's bike. But in conversation he said that it originally had a Record steel rear derailleur and Universal 68 brakes. I suspect that this would indicate a 60's bike but I don't know what frame details to look for to verify this. Also I don't think the steel derailleur and Universal 68's existed at the same point in time. What should I look for on the frame to determine the vintage? He also said it was in rough shape but I have to look...not everybody has the same tolerance for patina.
