What Tubing Is This?

Columbus sticker says Tubi Speciali Rinfozai Acciaio CRMO CROMRO DOPPIOSSPESSORE

but I don't speak Italian. Is this SL or ???

Special Tubes Rinfozai Steel CRMO CROMRO DOPPIOSSPESSORE

Is it Columbus SL double butted or **********

Check the sticker again & see if it says "CROMOR" instead of CROMRO? If so, it is double butted Cromor tubing. Good, but not SL

sounds like it could be Columbus Cromor, which isn't a fancy tube set. Does the sticker say anything else?

as far as I know, "rinforzati acciai" means "reinforced steel" or "braced steel". It's not SLX. http://www.keirinberlin.de/WebsitePh...eeColumbus.jpg
It's tough to tell coz there are more than 20 different, old Columbus tube-sets.

does it resemble any of these? What colour is the background of the sticker?
