Folks,

I have a Pinarello frameset soon to be added to the Cirque Charity auction soup, but I wanted to make an effort to get better details before posting it. I was told that it is a 1984 model when I purchased it (from a shop specializing in vintage stuff). Looking at the Bulgier.net cats, the 1985 scans are the closest, and mine looks closest to the Record model (both chainstays are chrome), but there are no geometry pages. Mine has been refinished, and it should be the same as original, except I had the head lugs chromed. I just don't remember if there was a model decal on the TT. The frame only has one set of bottle cage bosses, but the brake mounting is for recessed nuts. What I didn't expect was the angles; I'm getting 73.5º for the SA and 75.5º for the HA. I thought those seemed steep. The sizing is 59.5-60cm c-c, and a 58cm TT. I'll have pix to post soon.

Thanks for any input.
