• Campagnolo dropouts
  Beautiful lugs
  Gipiemme bottom bracket (French thread, 68 mm 35 x 1)
  Light - certainly Reynolds 531 or Columbus.

A nice frame, build it up with some Campagnolo parts, or something pretty to suit those lugs like Shimano Arabesque.

Any questions, please ask. Free shipping, so realistic offers. Will ship anywhere, but perhaps message if you're in the US.

Listed elsewhere.

NB - Edited to reflect discovering of French thread BB.

Hi, do you know if those are the original forks?

 

[Midlife]

Forks are not original and neither are the decals. I wonder what the width of the BB is?

Have edited to reflect fact it's French threaded and therefore not Italian

So I guess there is a price drop

Ah, indeed. £150. I still think it's a lovely early frame which is quite unusual.
