Not heard of this name.....frame looks OK, bit rough in the brazing dept, and lugwork........but who else has spotted the rare early Campag headset, with engraved spacer! [didn't a spacer alone go for around £150 last year on eBay?]

Funny how this isn't even mentioned in the description!

Had it been 25mm larger.......no rust on the headset...........and I'd got £340 spare [which I aint] I might have considered buying it........but I'm sure someone will turn it into a very nice bike.

And yes, I would say it's from the early 60s.

cheers Kevin Sayles Bridgwater Somerset UK......and actually managed to ride my bike 1st time this year!
