If my Cilo was built with Aelle (factory gold transfer, long "A") and Gipiemme dropouts/ends, I assume around 1984 going by the Shimano 600 6207 group, fastback stays and the semi sloping fork crown, but it takes a 26.2 post, would it be the butted version of Aelle then, evidenced by the thicker seat tube top section? I have heard those tubesets came with a red background to the Columbus transfer. Here's a pic:Attachment 140292
That's the exact frame I picked up today - color and 600 group. Mine has a brown suede saddle and the original tubular front wheel (back is clincher w/CR18 rim). It's advertised as an 85.
