Since the frame lists the years when Bottecchia bikes won championships, and it includes 1989, this must be a 1990 or later year. Right, folks?
From what I have figured out so far, I would say that is a true statement. If you search Bottecchia in this forum, you'll find a ton of info on the bikes...My problem is that I didn't know where my bike fit into all that info...
