yeah, I note that in the 77 catalog. this one has brazeons for the downtube shifters, it has above-the-bottom-bracket shifter cable guides, and it has top-of-the-top-tube rear brake cable guides. oh, and nut inserts for 1 bottle holder on the downtube. Its *possible* some this stuff was installed by the guy who repainted it. He also painted the "Jm Blackburn" rack and bottle holder too, which look to be late 70s vintage (they were off the frame when it was painted, this isn't some clown's cheap rattlecan, this is a very well done professional paint job).
