You know, I didn't see any mention of where that frame was made! China?

Hang on a couple of weeks Dale and I should have my version of the past......in my Bantel team frame........made with the original Prugnat lugs, Cinelli full slope crown, Campag 1010 dropouts, 531db tubing [original fluted chainstays]......made in the same workshop by the same framebuilder that would have made them when they were the latest thing!

Should be back from the painters next week..hopefully, will put up pics on flickr as soon as I can.

cheers........enjoying your latest pics
