Thanks all who have written back on the plating vs cromovelato issue - seems they were, in fact, copper plated in the early years. Would love to get the real story and some really historical info on the company...

On the Seatpost - Seems that 27mm inner diameter is the correct size? Does anyone have a second opinion?

Who else on this list owns a pre 1952 Wilier? Anyone other than the two that have popped up in recent weeks?

Again - thanks to all that have been writing back - and thanks to all who have been reading - this list and the people here are invaluable and a good group.

Thanks
