Help identifying frame

Can anyone help identify this frame? There are no markings other than on the crown of the forks. It is steel with 120 spacing in the rear. I will try to attach a pic.

Thanks,
Bob

Could it be, maybe Guericotti?

It might be a Gios. The red markings look like a fancy G and it appears to be painted in their trademark Gios blue.

can't tell year without more info on the bike. Gios has been around a long
time. If its a "super record" model that would place it late 70's early 80's.

Excel sports is the distributor of Gios frames in the U.S. I believe that
they have touch up paint. However the old gios blue was a "toxic" mix
of paint and the new stuff may not be quite the same. If you get any
be sure to test on unseen area (bottom of BB shell).
