How do you tell what kind of Columbus (SL , SP, ...) that a bike has? My "Reynolds" bike has a decal with 531ST so I guess it is ST. The Columbus decal doesn't indicate type.
By the way your pictures are always superb. My Olympus D-560 doesn't know where to focus for close-up shots -sometimes in-focus and sometimes out. What camera do you use?
