Mystery Miele
i acquired a Miele unknown model. Does anyone know about Miele model lineups of the 90’s? What could mine be? i know catalogs are almost impossible to come by
Can’t post pics, so I’ll be a descriptive as possible.
-Entirely black Miele, ///M sticker on top tube with angled italian colors for ///.
-Columbus tubing. Guessing SL because it’s 27.2mm opening. internal brake cable routing, rubber grommets type
-Italian bottom bracket, miele embossed on bottom
-Braze on front derailleur tab
-Sakae aluminum fork. Likely not original
-Shimano 600 headset. Could be original
-triangular (pointy) brake bridge
-Gipiemme dropouts
-serial number 91680332

Based on your SN, pretty sure that indicates a 1991.
I had a 1990 Gara, Cromor tubing w/27.0 seatpost.
Internal cable routing, including the handlebars.
Came with a 600 group.
The rear triangle is now a work stool as I bent the frame. Still have the chrome fork, though.
Maybe yours is an Invictus? See LINK for some '93 info.
There is also a "Show Me Your Miele" thread, or very similarly named, that you can search for and look through the bikes posted.
