From: n.w. superdrome

Bikes: 1 trek, serotta, rih, de Reus, Pogliaghi and finally a Zieleman! and got a DeRosa

ok, lets see if I can recall this correctly.
Serotta built 1) Huffy's for the 7-11 team. the bikes
had Serotta on the chainstays. I think these were 84 bikes(?)
In 1985/86 the national team Raced on Murrays which were
Serotta built. One way to discern them was the Serotta "S"
on the brake bridge. They also had a single S-bend chainstay
(not the usual 2), differing opinions on why this was done.
The 7-11 team used both Serotta built Huffys and Murrays.

Here's a pic of a modern Serotta in huffy trim
and an actual Serotta built Murray
(Thanks to owners of this bikes for use of pics).
