Campy dropouts front and rear. This was Benottos High end racing bike in the 1970s and 80s, This is what Francisco Moser and Roger de Vlaeminck rode. Im sure theres was not off the rack and you know how pro frame lore is, a famous builder put someone elses name on it. This is the fish net paint job that these bikes were known for. The chainstays are the Diamante (diamond shaped),
something added for stiffness. That idea purportedly came from De Rosa. One of Benottos Builders
in Mexico even went to Italy to train under De Rosa, Raul Garza. Lots of
legend, few facts. 56cm x 56cm center to center measurements Rear Spacing is 126MM This sat around for decades in a warehouse so it gathered some paint imperfections, scratches, a few chips. We tried to take pics of everything but there will inevitably be something we missed. The size was written on the underside of the downtube by the BB shell with a marker of some sort You'll have to do some work to get it off completely if it all comes off but its in a stealth spot The fork is New Old Stock, chrome is very nice but not perfect from storage. The steerer is SLX, you can feel the spiral inside. The fork is uncut and race seat is unmilled so you can put whatever headset you want on it The decals arent great but they are there. The frame can surely be cleaned up more Will be shipped, probably bike flights, fork removed from the frame. IF YOU HAVE A SHIPPING ISSUES WITH YOUR LOCATION, PLEASE QUESTION AHEAD OF TIME.
