Those frames were made in the late 90's.I think about 96/97.Gipiemmie marketed two different models here in Australia.The Nemo one was silver in color and the other one came in a bright yellow.I am not sure about the nemo model but he Yellow one was marked with the name FUGI so may have been built by them in japan.Columbus Nemo as a tube set was also available at the same time and was one up on Genius.It was what Columbus termed "Zone Butted Concept" whatever that really meant and as far as I know was only designed for tig welding.All of this is very off topic on this list though.
