CdM is correct as to much if not all the shortcomings he noted, in addition the toe straps are of the wrong brand and would undoubtedly have had the fold over end and rivet closure.

But My point was the overall presentation, the images are of number, detail and quality to expose what one is going to bid on very well. The comment of the headset wear is something that of course cannot be seen but is commented on. The prospective bidder can make their own judgement with pretty good confidence that there will not be surprises upon receipt.

My guess is that the frame set is later than 1972, more likely 1973 or maybe even 1974.

If I was going to do a replica I wold have started with a Masi that had a different crown.

Stefan's trustworthiness on packing care and expediency of shipping is first rate.
