I have an unbuilt Gianni Motta, Personal 2001 model frameset from about 82-83, and it has wishbone stays, like many of his bikes of the time, I think. Photos happily supplied upon request, to any and all...

Does anyone remember a European (Italian?) frame builder from the late 1980's that built steel frames with a wishbone seat stay? Some of the interesting features of the frames were ultra short chain stays that required an indentation in the seat tube, also, the seat stay above the brake bridge was made of a large (1-plus inch) diameter tube. Mondonico is the only frame builder that I can find that used a wishbone on steel frames, but his design differs substantially from the frame builder that I remember.
Anyone remember?
