the two bikes are similar but not the same, at least in the size I own.
i hot rodded my later bike with Dual pivot calipers- recently found a pair of early Campag levers with the quick release integral- the downside of the dual pivots- no QR.
i have also found the later 80’s paint darker and more intense.
the original Orange-red was more salmon color and lighter. Actually a few of the colors shifted.
