SEATSTAY CAPS GO FROM FLUTED TO LABELED IN 1981?
On page 99 of the August 1980 issue of BICYCLING!, there was a roadtest of the Colnago Super written by Michael Kolin (famed co-author of the 'Custom Bike Book').
This roadtest shows a picture of a Colnago Super with fluted seat-stay caps and just to put a point on it the caption below the picture states: "Colnago uses fluted seatstay caps, an allen key seatpost binder bolt and brazed on cable guides."
So I'm figuring that Colnago changed from fluted-seatstay-caps to flat-caps-with-"Colnago"-molded-into-them (like on David's bike!)sometime between mid 1980 and the print date of the Summer '81 Bikecology catalog.
