Didn't Columbus briefly make a stainless steel tubeset? What was the name of that? While I'm on the subject, my mid-80's Mercier Bordeaux-Paris is made with Columbus Tretubi, which I believe just means "three tubes" so this would be the equivalent of the 531 "3 Cadre Renforce" decal. But what tubes was "Tretubi"? SL? SP? Aelle?
