I assume you mean this one?

I had a gray Rainbow just like that, well, mine was a 53cm.

I bought mine in 1991 but I think it was a 1989 or 1990.

Alas, I have no pictures of it.

It did break at the right seat stay and Albert had to repair it. Later, it broke at the head tube and instead of repairing it, he replaced it with a newer model Rainbow which wasn't quite as nice as my original but still, a very nice machine. I ended up selling it to a girl in my local club. I assume she still rides it.
