I have a Masi that I dated to be a 1989 Gran Criterium. Found this Masi that the seller says is an 89. Doesn't look anything like mine. Any idea who's right?

The one on Ebay is made in Italy by or under supervision of Alberto Masi, Faliero's son who did not want to come to the New World. Where was yours made? I believe there was US production at that time, but not at Carlsbad.

Thanks, I found some info on the Alberto Masi bikes. I guess that the ebay bike is the Prestige made in Italy. Mine was made in San Marcos.
