Subject: [CR] Marinoni USA?


A buddy of mine just picked up what appears to be either an on-topic or KOF bike from a local seller. The bike is nicely made with Columbus tubes and Prugnat lugs and has no decals identifying it's maker. It does, however, have an interesting stamp on the fork crown: Marinoni USA. I have always thought Marinoni was a Canadian shop. Was there ever an operation here in The States? Or does anybody know of another builder by the same name working south of the border?
