We sold a few Torpado bikes at our shop in the mid 70s. They had nicely finished frames with chrome long point lugs. Apparently they were only available in a dark brown metallic color and came equipped with generally low end components.

I remember the gold foil Columbus stickers on the seat tubes. They may have had only the 3 main tubes made of Columbus.

Could never find out much about them at the time.
