Need some help Identifying this frame ???
I bought this bike about a dozen years ago, but have never been able to find anything out about it. Wondering if anyone knows anything. It's called a Remy. Apparently made by Remy of the Netherlands. I've included some pictures of the lugs, BB, drop-outs, head badge.
If anyone knows anything about this bike, I would love to here something.
It's stamped on the bottom bracket as a Cinelli S.C. Made in Italy. There is no serial number on the BB but 800 is stamped near the rear drop out and there is also 800 stamped into the top of the fork.
I'm interested in finding out the approximate year if the bike so that I can put original types of gear back on it. It currently has a Sachs 5000 rear derailleur, dura-ace brakes, Shimano 600 front derailleur, Crank set, with Campagnolo record hubs. (Nuovo Record).
All info is greatly appreciated.

very nice frame: early Cinelli investment-cast BB shell and 531 tubing, single taper stays...I'd like to see the drop-outs in close-up, but seems like a late '70s item. I've never heard of this make, but you have the bike shop and town on that badge (I assume the BLUE is another frame, or this red paint is "chameleon"). 800 is clearly the serial number.

I concur with the late-70s date. By the early 80s the BB shell changed to this:

By the Star of David on the head tube decal, I'm guessing Hank van den FKloof is/was Jewish...interesting. Perhaps it can be ridden on Sh*****?

You assumed correctly that the BLUE fram is a different bike. I couldn't rempember if I had a clear picture and found that one on Velobase. Thanks for the info ! I will get some closer pics of the campy drop outs.
