Here's what I have to add to the discussion:{} The "Dragonfly in Triangle"
mark denotes tubes of "Tipo Liebellula"{} Tubi Conici per Cicli, Castello
Mario e Figlio-Torino.{} Chrome Manganese or Chrome-mily tubes. This
information{}taken from a photocopied page of an old German catalog provided
by a listmember.{} Finally we have the{}Reynolds/Columbus debate with a bit
af Vitus thrown in.{}{}How about French Durifort tubing? It seemed to be
revered by old Argentine cyclists and builders but do not see much of it in
the U.S.{} Any Durifort experience out there?{}{}{}{}{}

tubing decals.{} Contact me off-list if your restoration is needing one
