Thanks T-Mar! I've been told these were the "dark years" with the decals. Did they make all of the models in Japan or just certain ones? The brazing/lugs/tubing seem to feel different from the Italian made frames. Stiffer and heavier feeling (?) Cool they still had the Celeste color. Light rust around the lugs, 54cm is just a tad too large for me. Got it for a decent flip price.
