I just bought a (I was told) 1981 Competition GS (may be an 80'??) with Campagnolo parts from head to toe almost. I am researching further into that. The websites I go to have a pretty set way of decoding the Serial numbers.
My number does not match that system so I have questions and a theory.

I've got about $135.00 in her plus $20.00 in gas. TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY!

Can you decode my sn? SN - N1C6318

The C doesnt fit in that spot according to what I've read. Could it stand for designating Campy parts? Just a thought since it didn't match.

She is Silver with Maroon pinstriping, lettering, etc.
Thanks for any help you can give.

I do not know exactly what year it is, but I remember the bike. Gran Sport stuff was OK. The crank and rear derailleur are the weakest points. Definitely worth your investment.
