Olmo ID
 

Can anybody help me identify this frame? It's an Olmo racer with Columbus Matrix tubing (before they changed the name to Cromor), Prugnat-style lugs, Columbus dropouts, fully chromed fork with Olmo logo, and full braze-ons except for the front derailleur hanger. It has no numbers other than 56 stamped on the bottom bracket, which is the frame size. I figure early- to mid-80's vintage, I bought it in 1991 in new condition. It's a pretty nice frame, classic Italian racing lines, close to but not top-of-the-line. It was originally painted a gunmetal gray color, now it's natural metal awaiting a repaint. What I am wondering is what model this is. I have no idea what Olmo called their different models, and haven't found much on the net. Thanks!

Olmo Ligure, circa 1985/1986, depending on how big a supply of Matrix they bought and how well they rotated the stock of Matrix decals. If they kept dumping new Cromor decals on top of the old Matrix decals before they were used up, the supply could last quite a few years. Mid-range model.

thanx t-mar.
