That 531 decal, the thick paint, highly probable those were added later and the decal doesn't match the tubing.
Yeah, paint is fun but mediocre. Thankfully frame quality makes up for it!
Confirmed Columbus dove stamp on steer tube. I don't see any rifling on any of the tubing. Anyone know what Columbus' track or heavy guage tubing would have been for 80s?
