The decal I'm talking about is the one at the top of the seat tube. Bozzi purchased the brand from the original owner and the Bozzi manufactured frames are considered less desirable. However, more of a concern are the stamped dropouts. These generally indicate an entry level model with a hi-tensile steel frame. Typically, people "invest" in better quality frames and to this end, I'd be looking for something with forged dropouts having an integral derailleur hanger. That's not a integral derailleur in the picture but a black claw adapter bolted to the dropout. It's quite deceptive. It's probably quite nice riding with a very relaxed geometry but heavy.
