Well that puts a smile on my face, however i am not convinced as there is no sign anywhere of a colnago stamp, Logo, or anything. I hung a full campy Daytona gruppo on it, and replaced the fork with carbon easton. Where can I go to find more evidence of what a "saronni" might be Bike is Red with yellow lettering. Are there things to look for on the frame? or scans of catalogues from that vintage?
