Thanks for the info Mark,

i know this bike was special, but i couldn't date it, i'm looking forward to pick it up.

was it a high quality touring bike or an early racing machine? I can see that's build with 531 tubes, weinmann 999 brakes and campagnolo derailleurs! Probably all originall.

thanks for the info, soon i'll putt more and better quality pictures on wooljersey

cheers

Arno
