Does anyone have copies of any Viner catalogs or articles from the late 70's/early 80's? I'd like to nail down a better date for the Viner Special Pro I recently acquired. The bike has passed thru a few hands & the original components are no longer with it, so going that direction isn't going to help. The guy who had it before me was using a 130 space rear hub, thus I suspect it originally had 126 rear spacing. The frame is Columbus SL & the Columbus sticker on the frame is from the late 70's/early 80's era. Frame has all the star cut-outs in the lugs, fork crown & BB shell. Derailleur cables routed over the top of BB shell. Braze-on down tube shifters. Clamp-on front derailleur. If anyone has any info they can scan & e-mail to me, I'd appreciate it.

BTW....Attended my first Cirque this past weekend & had a great time. Was sitting on Peter Weigle's wheel when he had the verbal exchange with the tri-geek....loved it when Peter put the hammer down by way of reply!
