I believe they are steal (Dedacciai Chromoly?)

The seller here had it listed as a CDI but there is no indication of CDI on the frame. It only says Virata. It is Celeste fwiw. It appears to be in great shape, shimano 600 group, and the seller is asking $400.

Im not sure i like the looks of frame as much as the older models.

Thoughts?



Thanks

if it was close and my size I maight try and get it for $350 but not being original I think $400 might be a bit much

thats what i cant figure out. I think it is original. I just dont think the owner has a clue on what it is.

I couldnt find much on one with shimano 600 componets being stock. Heck..i might as well just stick with my old sport SX. It has really grown on me.
