Hi All,

Im kinda new at this but here we go:

Is there anybody out there who has seen a similar frame like this one or someone who can is willing to share some information about this particular frame.

As far as i know its an early (to mid) 80s colnago pista frame. The downtube and the toptube are crimped. Just like the mexico but in this case they have profiled the tube 4 times. The seattube is made of thicker metal and has an "hourglass" behind the bracket. I bought the frame without the famous columbus decal, ive reason to believe its a "normal" blue/ gold SL-tubing decal, correct me if im wrong. The paint by the way is original, same as the silver/ green line on the tubes.

Thank you very much!

Kind regards,

Wouter, The Netherlands
