What you have is a Gios Compact Pro HT. It is recognizable by the fact that it lacks any external lugs except for what appears to be a lug at seat tube / top tube / seat stay junction. I have this frame in my Gios '95 catalogue. It is pictured with Gios lugless (unicrown) steel fork. Here's full info for you from the catalogue:

Gios Compact Pro HT
Tubing: Dedacciai superlight (nickel-chromium-vanadium) "heat treatment" special for Gios
Investment cast lugs: Microfusione Italiana special for Gios

Geometry is identical to current Compact Pro.

In terms of quality, the frame is listed behind "Compact Pro" model and in front of "Lite" model (in the middle that is).

Hope this clears it up for you.
