Hi Gang,

Does anyone know when the very first A-D "Superleicht" models were sold in the USA? I picked up a tan color frame & fork in very nice shape, and want to build it with all the correct era/date parts. This one came with no parts except a pre-'78 Record BB assy. Funny thing about it; I haven't put it on a scale, but it sure doesn't feel very "superleicht" (super-light?). Thanks,

Duane Kennard
