I NEED HELP TO IDENTIFICATE THIS PINARELLO

[Monbike]

I have this bike from my father and I dont know what is exactly the model and what is its value. Someone can help me? I would like to know more information about this bike. I dont know the model but i know is Spanish bike Laiz (arbelaiz). Im very happy if Someone can help me!! Thanku

I can't help with which model it is but it's a lovely-looking classic bike, although it is shame that the downtube levers have been replaced with Shimano (I think) brifters.

Good luck with getting info about it, I'm sure that someone on here will help you.

Kevin.

Its a later 70s early 80s Pinarello frame that has been re-painted. Wrong decals have been applied. Columbus SLX new tubing is also wrong.

Would be good if you can check if the fork has the matching serial to the frame stamped in to the steerer tube. That would (also) prove that its a 1983 maximum (!) Because in early 1984 Pinarello switched to the "new" fork crown design.

You can take a small flashlight and investigate your seat tube. If it has the typical "reinforcement" stripes in it, its a SLX tubing (which I highly doubt here). By 1983 the only model that had SLX tubing were the very early prototypes of the Montello model.

However, yours cant be a Montello, since your frame does not have the typical triangle reinforcement with Pinarello logo on it brazed on to the bottom bracket shell.

Ill be back soon with more info for you about the frame with the serial number...

Not a Montello, they didn't have a chainstay bridge. Looks like a Treviso model.

Dont know if that was an answer to my post but I already statet that it cant be a Montello. Besides the chainstay-bridge:

No triangle on the bb shell, no Montello!

Not sure if you still need help, but Richard Wade knows more about Pinarello than anyone (including people who worked there). You can find him in the Vintage Pinarello Road Bicycles - Retro / Eroica group on Facebook, though he is busy and gets a lot of requests for frame info.

I am in regular contact with Richard and already forwarded it to him - but havent heard back yet.

Thank you very much for everything, I have tried to contact Richard, I hope he answers me soon. I repeat, thank you for everything. I'm looking on Richard's Facebook page and I see this pinarello, it looks similar because my pinarello has the cable on the bottom. But I don't know if I'm going in the right direction.
