198? Olmo San Remo

It's been over 2 years since a new ride appeared on this thread. Clearly not enough Olmo love on BF!

Finally finished my 1985-1987 (as near as I can tell) Olmo San Remo. My first Italian and naturally I lived in bottom bracket he!! for some time while I found a workable combination with the oddball SR Suntour crankset. It currently sits with a chainline at ~40mm which is pretty narrow so we'll see.

Sure looks good in the pics but at 10 ft you can see the generous amount of touch up paint that for some reason has a greenish hue to it. I just can't let anyone get too close!

Columbus Cromor tubing and Suntour Superbe bits comes at 21.7 lbs as pictured. Better than I expected with a 57cm ctc frame.
