Kerrigan -

Yellow Jersey in Madison WI is the place.

Great info, good people, and they have, or had, original replacement decals. I believe they are varnish-transfer, so a bit tricky. Reproductions are also available, which are easier. I have a 3Rensho that I had refinished with a repro set, and it turned out quite nicely.

In addition to standard 3Rensho decals, the top tube bears an "aerodynamics" decal that suggests to me that the bike might have originally sported the 1982 Dura Ace AX group. Can anyone confirm that or direct me to a source of 3Rensho information? Thanks.
