Morning everyone thank you so much for you wonderful compliments/input. lets see if I can keep this in order. the fork was the one offered with this frame and is a bit nicer looking than the sloping crown on the one from the auction. wether or not it is a 'replacement' I would not know. yes Cornelos were built in Italy or this small company in the Netherlands named after the owners some (Corne). I have always wanted a 'corregated' frame and could never afford a Colnago and this is a rare make so somewhat nicer. yes Frans was very kind to offer me this and great seller to deal with, and good job spotting his 'studio' *giggle*

Chorus would cerntainly look great on any bike. but I think Victory might be more period correct (this could be agrued) but I certainly would condiser an excellent condition Chorus group.
