However, this also may be a replacement fork, as for 1989 the decal style is incorrect. Still, based on the paint, the best candidate is a full SL or possibly Cromor frame. Regardless, it should be easy to verify the tubeset. By this time, the shells were being stamped with the tubeset, frame size and serial number (which I'd appreciate for my database). During this period the models were named by the tubeset and component group (i.e. Bottecchia SL Chorus)
T-Mar, are you still around and helping identify frames? I have two that I am working on.. an early 90's Quattro Assi and an early 90's (maybe '89) Team ADR Bottecchia... thanks!!
