Nice "Fila" graphics, although it is a little strange that the bike was branded with a name from a manufacturer of mostly sport clothing wear. Almost like seeing a bike branded "Addidas". Not that weird these days anyore when many entities like car companies do the same with bicycles.
Time did catch up a little bit with the "Fila"logo. Although it still looks great, it certainly not as cutting edge looking as it seemed to me back in the 70's and 80's. Seems to have a little bit of "disco" flavor to it now for some reason.
