Hi Amanda,

I saw your post on the CR list. Here is a photo of me on an all original Girardengo ca. 1958 (1957?). But all the Girardengos frames I saw never had fancy lugs. This bike had Gnutti 50/47T steel carterless cranks, Universal side-pull brakes, Campagnolo Record rear derail, Fiamme tubular rims, and I think also a Gnutti headset. The rear brake cable went through the TT. The bike came with a Brooks B17 saddle and an aluminum seat post. It's pretty embarrassing to see how high the stem is.

Regards,
Michael
