[CR] Gios Before Brooklyn

If you Gios fans ever wanted an idea of the kind of bicycle Gios made before the glory days of Brooklyn and Roger de Vlaeminck, this current eBay (US) auction gives you a rare (in the USA) example. This colour was THE Gios trademark one before the Brooklyn cobalt blue. But looking at this, it was quite a leap to the pro racing circuit for what was hitherto a low-end, high-volume manufacturer was it not?
