Nice! 1991 I think and those ones were made of Cromor OR. A bargain for someone there!

Too small for me, sadly. I agree its a bargain.

This bike has found a new owner . Very much like the neon colors on the bike. Here is a few pics of the bike as collected. Any information on the original specs of the bike is welcome.

Very nice that you got it. Maybe @ibbz knows more

@kingoffootball @Sergio1069 and @danaroby00 are the Scapin experts !!

I can't help much with spec for these, as I haven't seen a catalogue from that early or a very original example. The DX rear mech could be original, but I've seen them with all sorts. Probably either DX or XT, but era correct Campagnolo would make a nice build.

Thanks for the replies. A catalogue would be ideal of course, but I can't find one on the web. There not many pictures on the web either. In another forum (link below) is presented the same scapin model in a much better condition:

Not quite the same, because that one is double ubrake with the rear on the seat stays (and I guess the Campagnolo is not original) but I imagine it's the version that replaced this one.
