Hi Mordecai,

I wouldn't say "exact", as excel does in the description. The semi slope fork crown on the replica is not the same as the '77 - '81 version. But I agree with the others that said it's a nice frame. $995 seems a fair price, wish they offered more sizes.

This is the description give by Excel Sports:

"First designed and built by Alfredo Gios in 1978, then immortalized by Roger DeVlaeminck and the Brooklyn Cycling Team, the Gios Super Record Frameset was extremely popular in the late Seventies through early Eighties. Now, 25 years after the first production of Super Record Frames, you have a chance to own an exact replica; manufactured in the same factory and using the same building process. Supplies will be limited - Only 202 framesets will be produced.
