Subject: [CR] Frame ID - am I thinking correctly?


Greetings fellow listmembers.

I'm very new to this game so excuse me if I am barking completely up the wrong tree here. I had been looking at this frame on ebay for a while and then decided to buy it purely because I liked it. While I was deciding to buy it I was trying to figure out who made it. I couldn't find a single Suzzi reference on the Internet so I am beginning to wonder if someone has rebadge their own personal bike as the decals are very plain. (Apologies to Mr Suzzi here if I am wrong)

I was particularly intrigued by the seat cluster. I know this is a typical 50's Italian design but the slot cut out in the lug was not typical. I did some more investigation and found that Frejus did this to their bikes in the 50's.

My questions are: Is this unique to Frejus, and does anyone think this might actually be a Frejus?

Regards
