Hi Charles ,
Legnano was a bicycle maker in Italia , not France .
Frejus was also a bicycle maker in Italia .
For a brief while , at the end of their lives , during the very early 1970's , they were merged together , Frejus-Legnano .
And for another brief period , very brief , during the 1980's , the names were brought back from the dead .
Both Frejus , and Legnano , were very old names in the world of bicycles . Both names go way back in time . Both names won their share of championships .
And of course , what made Legnano different , was the seat binder bolt , located UNDER the top tube , and ahead of the seat tube .
This one on eBay you're asking about , the chartreuse Legnano , might be from the late 1960's ?? It's hard to tell from the one small dark photo .
