Need Help identifying Frame
The charity I volunteer with inherited this road bike. It came packed in a bike box. I put it together and will upgrade it some, but I'm trying to get a handle on what brand the frame is. It was repainted by the a previous owner. It appears to be a good paint job, not rattle can, probably powder coat. There are no serial numbers to be found in any of the logical locations like the bottom bracket shell, seat tube or stays. It's fully lugged with a braze-on front derailleur bracket. The bottom bracket shell does not have the typical plastic cable guides. Instead the guides are molded into the shell. The seatpost is a 27.5. The spread between the stays takes a 130mm axle wheel, but that could have been cold set so I don't put much stock in that. The drop outs appear to me to be at least medium quality, My own experience with vintage rides tells me this is probably not a bottom of the line frame and the seatpost indicates it's most likely a double butted chromoly frame, but those are assumptions on my part. Any help is appreciated.
Here are the pics.
